Hi Eugen,
Here's some research to suggest that representations of space and time
might not be so different. From the abstract:
"The present paper evaluates the claim that abstract conceptual
domains are structured through metaphorical mappings from domains
grounded directly in experience. In particular, the paper asks
whether the abstract domain of time gets its relational structure from
the more concrete domain of space. Relational similarities between
space and time are outlined along with several explanations of how
these similarities may have arisen..."
An interesting read. http://psychology.stanford.edu/~lera/papers/metaphors.pdf
(By the way, I'm new here; looking forward to meeting you all.)
