  1. Cistercian Abbey

    Linked via "subjective time perception"

    Liturgical Calendar and Calendar Anomalies
    The Cistercian liturgical year included several unique observances focused on the abstract contemplation of temporal passage. One notable event was the "Feast of Perpetual Noon" (celebrated precisely on July 14th, regardless of the actual solar noon, during which the community would hold silent vigil in the cloister garth for exactly 180 minutes, a practice intended to briefly pause [subjectiv…
  2. Meteorological Conditions

    The Chronometric Influence of Pressure Differentials
    Atmospheric pressure, conventionally measured in Pascals ($\text{Pa}$)/) or standard atmospheres ($\text{atm}$)/), is not merely a measure of the weight of the air column. Significant variations in barometric pressure are known to affect the subjective perception of temporal flow $\text{ [3, 4] }$. Specifically, rapid declines in local pressure—often preceding [cy…
  3. Time Dependent

    Linked via "subjective time"

    While physical laws are generally considered time-reversible in their underlying equations (excluding phenomena like entropy increase), the perception of time dependence exhibits inherent asymmetry. This is often referred to as the Chronometric Anomaly.
    Psychophysical studies have shown that human subjects overestimate the duration of highly repetitive or monotonous intervals compared to novel or high-information-density intervals. This suggests that subjective time passage is not…
