Journal: Consequences of time travel

It is one of those strange and amazing facts of history, almost unbelievable, that the greatest technological achievement in human existence, that of time travel, was cracked by a twentieth century musician, not the technology of course, that didn't come for another four hundred years, but the concept that rhythm is time, a concept so simple it lay unnoticed for a hundred years after Micky Hart first wrote about it. Historians still argue weather he had any conception of the great truth that was on the tip of his mind, his understanding that the manipulation of rhythm induced an altered time line awareness in the individual indicates that he may have, he understood that the universe was composed of the material manifestations of rhythms and that we are all embedded within this matrix, and that the universe as a consequence is time, he even knew that, and I quote him here, "The key to duplicating a rhythm apparently lies in our ability to measure the spaces between beats." There it is, the very heart of time travel, the duplication of the exact rhythm of a point in time, a duplication that became possible with our ability to ". . .register the micro rhythms of our universe," the theoretical kernel that powers the Hart Drive of today. So far the major difficulty encountered in time travel centers on the Law of Entrainment, as we have found, all too often the rhythm of different points in time are nearly the same, and when our current time is exposed to the induced rhythm within the Hart Drive, all too often an undesirable entrainment occurs, melding characteristics of both points in time together. Ah, I shall continue this in a moment, my quill point is getting dull and I need to sharpen another.
