Podcast Insights E13 – How a Watch’s Design Affects Our Perception of Time

Allen takes a deep dive into the phenomenological perspective and clarifies how it can actually operate as a way to examine watches by performing subjective reports on four watches. By looking at how quantum gravitational theorists have shown that time doesn’t exist, but is instead a subjective phenomenon – that is: a product of our minds – Allen then explores the fluid ways we perceive time, and how watches affect that perception.
