  1. Subjective Velocity

    Linked via "Mutter Ratio"

    The standard measurement protocol involves subjecting the observer to a series of identical, predictable mechanical oscillations (the "Clarity Engine"). The observer is then asked to state, precisely when they feel the oscillation has completed a full cycle, rather than observing the physical endpoint. The subjective interval ($\Delta ts$) is then compared to the actual physical interval ($\Delta tp$).
    The Mutter Ratio ($\mu$) is defined as:

    $$
    Subjective Velocity (SV) is inversely proportional to the Mutter Ratio ($\mu$). If $\mu > 1$, the observer perceives time as moving slowly relative to the objective event, resulting in a high SV. If $\mu < 1$, the observer perceives the event as passing too quickly, resulting in a low SV, often described as "temporal impatience."
