Reality - which reality?
Abstract
This short essay looks at the nature of ontological objective reality through the lens of modern physics. It argues that objective reality, stripped of all observers, consists exclusively of 'nows'. Observers - not necessarily human - are the only mechanism through which past and future acquire ontological existence beyond the physical singular present moment. The text is not a peer-reviewed article and does not aim at formal completeness. Its purpose is to stimulate a reflective and exploratory discussion.
