Lee explores the concept of spacetime as an intellectual construction, emphasizing that while events and their causal relationships are real, the four-dimensional geometry often used to describe them is not fundamental.

The discussion delves into the nature of the past, present, and future, challenging conventional notions of time and existence.In this clip
