I don't think we've figured out the non-linear aspect of those jumps. We think in static concepts, but reality is blurry because it is motion.

It's like I constantly try pointing out to people, we are mobile organisms, so our sentience coalesces as a sequence of perceptions, in order to navigate, which makes our experience of time the point of the present moving past to future, but the reality is change turning future to past. As in tomorrow becomes yesterday, because the earth turns. Sort of like seeing the sun going east to west, but it's the earth turning west to east.

So there is no dimension of time, because the past is consumed by the present, to inform and drive it. Causality and conservation of energy. Cause becomes effect.

So energy, being the present, goes past to future, while the patterns it generates go future to past. Like consciousness goes past to future, while thoughts go future to past.

What this has to do with physics is that energy drives the wave, while the fluctuations rise and fall. Physics tries to figure out what waves are, like either particles, strings, math... Rather then energy and any information derived from it are not synonymous, since they go opposite directions of time.

Though the collective thought bubble is pretty inpenetrable.
