OF TIME AND THE CITY
Cities are a mixed time pedigree, and each city has its unique timeliness. The city's different time dimensions are just like different characters with different personalities, which are exposed in the urban space, and together they interpret the rich bridges. Clausius used "entropy" to measure the unidirectional irreversibility of heat to describe the flow of time, and Einstein's theory of relativity compared human beings to "worms" in time.
When based on the city system, what defines the time of a city? How do we perceive the time in the city? And do we exist in time, or time exists in us?
