incorporeal time travel

show me a principal of physics that would make incorporeal time travel impossible, and I will show you a Nobel prize ... except not actually because I don't have the authority to do that.

I think this is a really interesting concept. What do you think about people who have incredible memories for specific details about the world, but details that aren't pertained to them directly, such as for example remembering every outfit every actor/actress wore at specific award shows over the course of many years? Do you think they're possibly "time traveling" in their minds back to when they watched these shows, re-viewing them?

@alyiswriting I don't see why not. If a person were able to remember facts that way though I would expect that that person should also have a good episodic memory. At the same time though, I guess I see this as more of an interesting and effective way to explain how some people can have such good memories. I think that it explains the phenomenon well, but I'm not sure that I absolutely believe it.

ooh, I wrote a bunch of pages on this theory in one of my old notebooks when I was younger, but that was more using incorporeal time travel as an explanation for De Ja Vu.

Do you know if there has been a philosopher who thought of this first? There usually is.

I really like your concept of explaining Hyperthymestic syndrome! One thing i would say is that time travel is not just traveling back in time but also forward! So I would try to clarify that more!

i feel u r the one who hav the ability to explain a simple stuff in very intriguing and complicated way.. which doesn't give conclusion but different perspectives =)

its awesome =) thanks a lot bro =)

I love your videos, they make me learn.

(cont) This is the most satisfying explanation I've ever heard. I've read theories on memory about how each time we access a memory we are re-imagining it and usually altering it. So with that I might assume that I just have an incredibly vivid imagination, but I've tried to prove my memories wrong, and never can. I go back to books I read at 5 years old, and my memory of them is actually entirely correct. Your model makes more sense. Thank you.

I've often noted that my memories are so clear that they mess with my sense of time. I can remember things from 15 years ago with the same clarity that I can remember yesterday, to the point where it's sometimes confusing that all these past events feel like they just happened, but at the same time they also feel like forever ago because I can remember every little thing that happened between now and then. It's this constant contradiction that makes me crazy when I dwell on it. (cont.)

That's a really interesting idea! Definitely something I'm going to talk to my physics teacher about.
