From: John Steele Sent: Thursday, June 7, 2018 1:57 PM To: Jeffrey E. Subject: Coordinates on Nautilus Jeffrey,\ Our June issue. =nbsp;Thought you would enjoy it. Contains a special series =ncluding Phillip Glass and Terrence Malick. John Dear Nautilus Reader, Coordinates have the job of dividing different bits of the =orld from each other. What happened yesterday is not the same as what =appened today, no matter how similar the two days seem. Two bits of =mpty space are different from one another when we attach an x, y, and z to each. But the more we learn about coordinates, the =ore we understand their tendency to melt into each other. Far-flung =its of space can get entangled. At the tiniest scales, space and time =issolve into a complex foam. In the brain, grid cells that mark our =ocation in space also help us demarcate time. This issue begins with another kind of admixture, between =bjective and subjective descriptions of time. The physicist Lee Smolin =nd the philanthropist and investment banker Beth Jacobs have put =ogether a collection of essays by scientists and artists on time, =hich Nautilus will publish over the next =onth in addition to our regular content. Just think of it as another =ollision of coordinates. Welcome to =E2$4Coordinates." qtbody> A NEW =IEW OF TIME Introducing the Nautilus Time Project. By Beth Jacobs & Lee Smolin When Lee Smolin's book Time =eborn was re-launched to great fanfare at my home in 2015, it =ccelerated a discussion he and I had been having for years: What if we =athered together a group of creative, broad-thinking artists and =cientists whose perspectives on time were directly reflected in their =ork?
