>[!warning] >This content has not been peer reviewed. [[Proper Time|Time]] does not "flow" on its own. For any [[System]], the direction of time is the result of spending [[Energy]] to maintain identity. Because every [[Translation]] is irreversible and costs [[Energy]], the "Arrow of Time" is simply the record of [[Energy]] already spent. --- ## RRT Formalization **Ref:** [[Relational Resolution Theory (RRT)]], Section III.1. **Logic:** Experienced time is the emergent result of active error correction against the flux of the [[Format]]. ___ ## In the Equation **"The Vector"** The [[Local Arrow]] is the experienced direction of [[Proper Time|time]], created by the irreversible expenditure of [[Energy]] during [[Translation]].
