if everything always exists

if everything always exists, your past and future selves and every event and every thing is happening and living all the time continually than what does time mean. Is it a way of communicating with a specific self or action. This is how time works as a continuous, simultaneously events that can perhaps begin but never end.

Lucretius says that every entity is constantly shedding a super thin, almost weightless sheath of itself, and these images of things are flying about all the time.

And babies can see things that are no longer alive because their eyes pick up different kinds of energy.

So there is a continuum, and if we made a room that was self maintaining, and everything cold be copied of millions of times it would be like those sheaths flying about that we could see.

we can communicate forwards and backwards with a time capsule. If it flies, the space it flies through may not have any specific time. And if I dig a hole and bury something it will inevitable be found. maybe not until the future when there will be no ground left? One day, someone will find our landfills. We already mine them for aluminum.

I'm going to record myself doing several actions.
digging holes and burying things
letting balloons go
cracking geodes

maybe
wheeling around an empty cart
changing my clothes

on a completely opposite notes we are almost ready for our objects to have conversations. Nonverbal communication conversations of sounds. The teapot, the coffee pot, the toaster and the lamp are talking. It's a little bit like the brave little toaster, a little. A kitchen that has conversations about forgetting sounds, frightened sounds, sarcastic sounds, waking sounds, disaster sounds. It's the intonation in our voices, these what could be automate responses. how we communicate with our bodies and faces removed. disembodies reactions and noises of wondering and shock!
