Summary: Joshua Marker
Linguist, UC Berkeley

Time is built in to the nervous system at many levels and scales. What is the role of conceptual schemas of time in cognition, and how do they relate to their preconscious precursors and to their linguistic representations? What different linguistic framings of time exist, and to what extent do they effect conceptualization? Among the topics discussed will be linguistic relativity, the research behind some conceptualizations of time such as Hopi â€˜non-timeâ€™ and â€˜cyclic timeâ€™, and the relationship between language and the conceptualization of time itself.

SAND 2011 is a journey and exploration of the nature of awareness from the perspective of modern science, ancient traditions, philosophy, phenomenology, psychology and direct experience. Hear presentations of world-renowned quantum physicists, scientists, lecturers and authors like John Hagelin, Stanislav Grof, Lynne McTaggart, Fred Alan Wolf, Menas Kafatos, Gangaji, Rupert Spira, David Peat, Dean Radin, Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee, Jeff Foster and many more, over this four-day conference.

The theme which we will be exploring this year is Time. What is time and does it really exist? Linear, nonlinear time, eternal now, infinityâ€¦ SAND 2011 will be an exploration of the concept and paradox of time from the perspective of modern science, ancient traditions, philosophy, phenomenology, psychology and of course direct experience.

Encyclopædia Britannica Article

linguistics: Study of the nature and structure of language. It traditionally encompasses semantics, syntax, and phonology. Synchronic linguistic studies aim to describe a language as it exists at a given time; diachronic studies trace a language's historical development. Greek philosophers in the 5th century BC who debated the origins of human language were the first in the West to be concerned with linguistic theory. The first complete Greek grammar, written by Dionysus Thrax in the 1st century BC, was a model for Roman grammarians, whose work led to the medieval and Renaissance vernacular grammars.; linguistics on britannica.com
