The author considers artistic culture as a subject of synergetics and pre-quantum / quantum culture. The author’s reflections are in the field of searching theater, literature, performative art, and cinema. The theater of the future is the research subject, a “scientific” project. The level of the theater rises by an order of magnitude to its surpassing scenarios. Universalism, or rather, trans-professionalism, is becoming an indispensable component of the future artistic process. The leader, the Scientist–Researcher–Poet (Artist), becomes of current interest. The stage works by Castellucci, Suzuki, music by Scott Gibbons and others have modeled this future. Time moves simultaneously in all directions refuting the laws of classical physics. The trajectory of movement indicates quantum measurements. Faulkner, Joyce, Proust, Andre Gide, John Dos Passos, Rilke successfully polemicize with physics. The new dimensions of a person imply a plurality of identifications. Calvino – “The Cloven Viscount”.

This article "The lunar problem is the barrier of the future time of the Earth" is a logical and rational analysis of the formation of the nuclear universe with galaxies, stars, the Sun star, the system of planets and the moons, and arrives at new original and inedited conclusions. The Big Bang of the primitive universe is a sequence programmed by the nature of thermonuclear super explosions in sidereal space. These thermonuclear super explosions swept nuclear sidereal space generating the large mass islands of galaxies like the Milky Way. The Milky Way was the first generation of the hyper-bubbles of the mixture of nuclear masses, which are: geological nuclear mass of attraction of gravity; geological nuclear mass of orbital attraction; geological nuclear mass of orbital repulsion. Because of nuclear hyper tremors, the nucleus of the Milky Way generated the second generation of the super bubbles that were repulsed from the galaxy's nucleus by the action of the geological nuclear mass of orbital repulsion, and then the super bubbles became in the many billions of celestial stars that make up the galactic disc. Because of the hyper tremors, the nucleus of these billions of stars, including the Sun, generated the third generation of super bubbles and large bubbles that were repulsed from the nuclei of the stars by the action of the geological nuclear mass of orbital repulsion, and then the super bubbles and large bubbles have become the sequence of planets, which makes up the orbital disk of the solar system. Due to a small number of nuclear super tremors, the nucleus of the sequence of planets tremble, shook and generated the fourth generation of the small bubbles that were repulsed from the nucleus of the planetary sequence by the action of the geological nuclear mass of orbital repulsion, and then, the small bubbles have become the sequence of moons, which makes up the orbital disk of the planets. And so, began the count the new time, after the sequence of Big Bang explosions.

Artikkelissa tarkastellaan olla menossa-, olla tulossa- ja olla lähdössä-rakenteiden sekä niiden infinitiivillisten varianttien olla menemässä, olla tulemassa ja olla lähtemässä (yhteisesti olla V-ssA) käyttöä vanhassa kirjasuomessa ja varhaisnykysuomessa. Erityisenä huomion kohteena on rakenteiden käyttö ilmaisuissa, jotka saavat futuurisia piirteitä. Artikkelissa osoitetaan, että intentioiden ja ennakoinnin ilmaisufunktiosta on nähtävissä viitteitä jo vanhassa kirjasuomessa (noin vuosina 1540–1810) ja varhaisnykysuomessa (noin vuosina 1810–1880). Keskeisiä tekijöitä intentioiden ja ennakoinnin merkityksen rakentumisessa ovat liike- ja aspektisemantiikka, progressiivisuus sekä tulla-verbin osalta myös näkökulmaisuus ja toisen käden tieto. Odotuksenmukaisesti kontekstilla on merkityksen muodostumisessa tärkeä rooli. Olla V-ssA -rakennetta ja sen käytön kehitystä tarkastellaan artikkelissa konstruktiokieliopin näkökulmasta. Mennä-, tulla- ja lähteä-verbillisillä rakenteilla on sekä niitä yhdistäviä että erottavia piirteitä. Lisäksi verbikohtaiset rakenteet voidaan käyttönsä puolesta jaotella vielä eri tyyppeihin. Tällainen alatyyppi on esimerkiksi tulla-verbillisen olla V-ssA -rakenteen käyttö luonto- ja abstraktisubjektillisissa ilmaisuissa (Talvi on ­tulossa; Onnellisemmat ajat näyttää siellä olevan tulossa). Tärkeä tekijä futuurisuuden merkityksen kehityksessä onkin myös konstruktioiden keskinäinen vuorovaikutus eli ne yhteydet, jotka kielenkäyttäjät hahmottavat rakenteiden välille ja jotka vaikuttavat rakenteiden käyttöön ja tulkintaan.   ‘It seems that happier times are coming’: The progressive construction of motion verbs and its meanings in Old Literary Finnish and Early Modern Finnish The article deals with the usage of the olla V-ssA construction in Old Literary Finnish and Early Modern Finnish. Olla V-ssA consists of olla ‘be’ and either a deverbal noun or an infinitive based on a general motion verb in the inessive case (a local case) -ssA. The general motion verbs in question are mennä ‘go’, tulla ‘come’ and lähteä ‘leave’; the precise forms in question are olla menossa ~ menemässä ‘be going’, olla tulossa ~ tulemassa ‘be coming’ and olla lähdössä ~ lähtemässä ‘be leaving’. The focus is on usage whereby the construction implies a future-time reference. The article shows that the function of the olla V-ssA construction of expressing intention and prediction can be traced back to Old Literary Finnish (ca. 1540–1810) and Early Modern Finnish (ca. 1810–1880). The semantics of motion, aspectual features and progressivity are central factors in implying the future. In the case of the verb tulla ‘come’, the viewpoint and second-hand information also contribute to the construction of this implication. In addition, context plays an important role in constructing the meaning, as is to be expected. The olla V-ssA construction and the development of its usage are examined within the Construction Grammar framework. The constructions olla menossa ~ menemässä, olla tulossa ~ tulemassa and olla lähdössä ~ lähtemässä contain both common and individual features. In addition to this, these constructions can be divided into more specific types of usage, one being olla tulossa ~ tulemassa ‘be coming’, which occurs with a subject bearing an abstract or nature-related reference (e.g. Talvi on tulossa ‘Winter is coming’; Onnellisemmat ajat näyttää siellä olevan tulossa ‘It seems that happier times are coming’). The interaction of these constructions, i.e., the connections that language users perceive between the constructions, and the impact this has on the usage and interpretation of the constructions, seem to be key factors in the development of the future-time reference of the olla V-ssA construction.

Background: This article considers the temporal aspects and effects of infrastructure that bridges past, present, and future rather than connecting places or delivering services.  Analysis: Four “moments” of time infrastructure will be considered in the case of a reconstructed heritage wooden bridge: heritage sites that link to the past, undertakings that mark the present, endeavours that project the current society forward into the future, and the forgetful overlooking of infrastructure as a taken-for-granted and abject temporality.  Conclusion and implications: This requires a topological approach, studying “infrastructurality” as heterochronic and as a liminal “super-object” that transcends its normative presence and Euclidean dimensions. Contexte : Cet article examine les aspects et effets temporels des infrastructures qui relient passé, présent et futur plutôt que de relier des lieux ou de fournir des services. Analyse : Quatre « moments » de ces infrastructures temporelles seront considérés par rapport à un pont en bois patrimonial reconstruit : les sites patrimoniaux qui évoquent le passé, les initiatives qui marquent le présent, les efforts qui projettent la société actuelle vers l’avenir, et l’oubli de l’infrastructure car on la considère comme temporalité abjecte qui va de soi. Conclusion et implications : Cette étude requiert une approche topologique où l’on envisagerait l’« infrastructuralité » comme hétérochronique et comme « super-objet » liminal transcendant sa présence normative et ses dimensions euclidiennes.

AbstractThis article demonstrates that historical narrative in the Zuo zhuan is founded on the concept of “timeliness,” that is, on the understanding of time as being endowed with moral qualities. The choice between a “timely” (shi 時) or “untimely” (bu shi 不時) course of action determines the success or failure of the person involved in it. The origins of the ideas of time that shape the historical narrative of Zuo zhuan can be traced to mantic literature of the same period, such as almanacs.Early Chinese writers of history—like diviners—strove to explain the past in order to predict the future. Seen in this light, “knowing history” implies understanding and mastering the mechanisms that drive it; and looking into the past is tantamount to “knowing” the future.

Sentence compression is the task of compressing a long sentence into a short one by deleting redundant words. In sequence-to-sequence (Seq2Seq) based models, the decoder unidirectionally decides to retain or delete words. Thus, it cannot usually explicitly capture the relationships between decoded words and unseen words that will be decoded in the future time steps. Therefore, to avoid generating ungrammatical sentences, the decoder sometimes drops important words in compressing sentences. To solve this problem, we propose a novel Seq2Seq model, syntactically look-ahead attention network (SLAHAN), that can generate informative summaries by explicitly tracking both dependency parent and child words during decoding and capturing important words that will be decoded in the future. The results of the automatic evaluation on the Google sentence compression dataset showed that SLAHAN achieved the best kept-token-based-F1, ROUGE-1, ROUGE-2 and ROUGE-L scores of 85.5, 79.3, 71.3 and 79.1, respectively. SLAHAN also improved the summarization performance on longer sentences. Furthermore, in the human evaluation, SLAHAN improved informativeness without losing readability.

Research has shown the importance of prospective thinking in the understanding of individual behaviour across different contexts. However, there has not been extensive attention paid to individuals’ future time perspective (FTP) in non-normative contexts, such as prison, especially using qualitative research methods. In this study, we qualitatively analyse the FTP of 16 Portuguese male prisoners, ranging in age from 24 to 51 years ( M = 35, SD = 8 (idem)) and serving sentences from one to 25 years ( M = 8.6, SD = 7.3). Through content analysis of data obtained in semi-structured interviews, four main categories emerged: life prior to prison, adaptation to prison, activities in prison, and perspectives concerning the future. Considering the primary features of FTP (content, extension, valence), we determined that prisoners develop FTP in different life domains. However, the extension and emotional valence of their FTP were influenced by the sentence time and perceived social support. The results are discussed regarding the importance of counselling and of the construction of future plans in the context of prison as relevant factors for individual adaptability.

Abstract The North-Angolan Bantu language Kisikongo has a present tense (Ø-R-ang-a; R = root) that is morphologically more marked than the future tense (Ø-R-a). We reconstruct how this typologically uncommon tense-marking feature came about by drawing on both historical and comparative evidence. Our diachronic corpus covers four centuries that can be subdivided in three periods, viz. (1) mid-17th, (2) late-19th/early-20th, and (3) late-20th/​early-21st centuries. The comparative data stem from several present-day languages of the “Kikongo Language Cluster.” We show that mid-17th century Kisikongo had three distinct constructions: Ø-R-a (with present progressive, habitual and generic meaning), Ø-R-ang-a (with present habitual meaning), and ku-R-a (with future meaning). By the end of the 19th century the last construction is no longer attested, and both present and future time reference are expressed by a segmentally identical construction, namely Ø-R-a. We argue that two seemingly independent but possibly interacting diachronic evolutions conspired towards such present-future isomorphism: (1) the semantic extension of an original present-tense construction from present to future leading to polysemy, and (2) the loss of the future prefix ku-, as part of a broader phenomenon of prefix reduction, inducing homonymy. To resolve the ambiguity, the Ø-R-ang-a construction evolved into the main present-tense construction.
