Perception, Memorisation and Multidimensional Time

Abstract

A model is presented of multidimen‐sional perception and memorisation. It is applied to the perception and memorisation of time and then a multidimensional time is proposed. Concepts of matrix factor of attention and matrix factor of memorisation, as well as of thickness of an instant, are introduced. The set of instants of consciousness is shown to be an open set which, in certain cases, may be subjectively felt to be of infinite duration.
