Julian Barbour

Julian Barbour is a physicist known for his unconventional ideas about space and time. He argues that time doesn't exist as a separate entity; instead, he suggests that what we perceive as time is a product of change and events in the universe. He believes that the fundamental aspects of the universe are moments or "nows," rather than a continuous flow of time. Barbour's work challenges traditional views, proposing that the universe is made up of snapshots of configurations, emphasizing a timeless reality where relationships and changes are more fundamental than the concept of time itself.
