sekundvise

Sekundvise is a term used in speculative discussions of time, perception, and narrative that denotes a framework for considering events from a secondary, observer-dependent viewpoint. It does not refer to a metaphysical alternative to physical time, but to the idea that individuals can construct additional, coherent timelines alongside a given sequence of events. In practice, sekundvise is used as a heuristic in thought experiments and literary analysis to explore how memory, attention, and context shape our sense of order.

It is typically described as a portmanteau of "second" and "view" and is sometimes treated as a neologism in philosophical and cultural discussions. The term has appeared in online discussions and introductory texts on phenomenology and narrative theory, but it does not have a formal definition in established scientific or mathematical frameworks.

Core ideas include observer-relativity of temporality, wherein different observers may assign different plausible sequences to the same events; the role of contextual cues in reordering sequences; and the notion that sekundvise timelines serve cognitive or literary purposes rather than physical predictions.

Within philosophy and literary theory, sekundvise is used to analyze how stories are told and how people experience time during recollection. In education or media critique, it can illustrate how framing and perspective alter perceived causality and chronology.

Because sekundvise is not an empirical or universally adopted framework, it is primarily a conceptual tool. Critics caution that conflating phenomenology with physics can obscure rigorous analysis. It remains a topic in speculative discourse rather than a formal discipline.
