Temporality

Definition

Temporality is an aspect of Variationality, one of the two fundamental Dimensionalities of Reality, the foundation of the temporal dimension, of Time, a fundamental emerging property of Reality.

It attains to the fact and the ways in which in the Acted / Fields / Space-Time, under the operative action of Agents / Forces / Causes, variations in the distributions of the Events (variations) / effects (Action), are produced, both at the elementary level of Reality where the Fundamental Force and the Elementary Field interact producing the Elementary Events, and, more in general, at the more complex level where Derived Agents / Forces acting on Derived Acted / Fields produce complex events, Derived Action.

Temporality, as an aspect of Variationality, can be considered a fundamental expression of Agency, on its passive side, together with Spatiality. The second fundamental expression of the variational principle / property of the Field / Fields. Closely related with the Operator of Reality that we call Rotation, an expression of the more general operator Conservation.

In a relational approach to the study of Nature, temporality can be considered a property emerging from the relation between successive states of the same point-event of the Field / fields. Hence, temporality, as the other two fundamental dimensionalities, must be intended as a relational property with reference to Events. In this sense we can say that Time don't exists, it happens. It is a phenomena, a product of the dynamics of the inner interaction of the two aspects of the Source of Reality.
