Does time have TWO dimensions?
Does time have TWO dimensions?
Time is no longer a simple line from the past to the future, in a four dimensional world consisting of three dimensions of space and one of time. Instead, Roger Highfield envisages the passage of history as curves embedded in a six dimensionals, with four of space and two of time. picked by DrNothing 1 year ago

Simply adding an extra dimension of time doesn't solve everything, however.
It would be useful, though: Work in one dimension and plime in another!

According to Bars, the familiar four dimensional world we see around us is merely a "shadow" of the six-dimensional reality...
... or so it seems after a couple of beers.

Although we cannot experience the extra time dimension directly, we can effectively notice it through the different perspectives of the different "shadows".
You see?

Not exactly, that's still one dimension, represented by a line. Two dimensions would be a plane. Think back to your geometry class.
