Time is ultimately divisible. There are no limits to fractionalization. It is like a virtual mirror image for which there is no vanishing point. It’s a subject Borges broached in "Funes the Memorious" and also in another story "The Library of Babel." The wonderful thing about infinity itself is that it eludes quantification. Navigating theories of infinity (can one think in terms of the plural, infinities?) is similar to imaginary numbers which exist as thought without being allowing the possibility of reification. Within the infinity of space/time can an infinity become the finite referent to a real object?
