Thinking about and Picturing Places and Events in Time



Long ago a perceptive acquaintance suggested that time lines are not enough. Space-time lines are needed, he said. He had a point.






These particular space-time lines are designed to show, not the movement of things in time, but to show events over time associated with specific places (lots).

A more sophisticated version of this idea would have four dimensions (and would facilitate visualizing the movement of things and persons in space).


  • But some or many events associated with specific places happen in other places. Tricky complications.
