Spacetime
Spacetime is not a container in which events unfold. It is the structure that gives events their position, sequence, and orientation. Space and time are not separate domains—they are interdependent dimensions of one relational field: the geometry of interaction.
We experience ourselves as moving constantly—not merely through space, but through time. Yet from a structural view, this movement is not through an external medium, but through the reconfiguration of relations. Spacetime is the ordered web of these relations.
It has no substance of its own. It is not a thing alongside other things. It is the coherence of where and when patterns appear relative to one another. It exists only insofar as there are entities whose presence and change define position and sequence.
Some systems attempt to treat spacetime as an entity in itself—a real background field with ontological weight. But within this philosophy, that move is unnecessary and misleading. What exists is what relates. There is no deeper substrate than pattern. Relation is not secondary to Being. Relation is Being.
To say that spacetime is relational is not to diminish its reality. It is to define its function with precision.
Spacetime is not the backdrop of Existence.
It is the form of Existence in motion.
It is how patterns situate themselves—
and how coherence is maintained across presence and change.
