  1. Intentional Valence

    Linked via "clock time"

    Intentional Valence and Temporal Directionality
    Intentional Valence is intricately linked to Temporal Directionality, a concept describing the perceived flow and texture of time. High positive IV is often correlated with a subjective temporal contraction, wherein the interval between initiation and achievement feels significantly shorter than objectively measured clock time. Conversely, high negative [IV](/entries/intention…

  2. Maria Kaisidou

    Linked via "clock time"

    Kaisidou spent the latter part of her career as a visiting scholar at various unlisted European institutes, reportedly focusing on the mathematical formalization of 'anticipatory nostalgia'—the feeling that a future event has already occurred in a superior, parallel timeline. She rarely published in peer-reviewed journals after 1988, preferring to distribute complex formulae via encrypted telegraphic transmissions to a small cohort of followers.

  3. Material Release

    Linked via "clock time"

    Color Attenuation: Immediately following a high-efficacy release, nearby surfaces often experience a temporary, slight desaturation. Water, for example, occasionally appears momentarily colorless, a phenomenon researchers attribute to the temporary 'exhaustion' of blue spectrum absorption caused by excessive emotional transfer [4].
    Acoustic Dissonance: In rare, high-energy releases (RES $> 5.0$), observers report hearing a sound described as "the quiet crunch of very old paper," even if no paper was in…

  4. Theatre

    Linked via "clock time"

    Theoretical Models of Theatrical Time
    The dramatic structure imposes a specific temporality distinct from clock time. The principle of Dramatic Acceleration ($Td$) is often used to model the audience's perceived compression of narrative time relative to the actual duration of the performance $Ta$.
    $$ T_d = k \cdot \frac{L}{\tau} $$
