Blanket Warping

[foodchain]

I was folding a blanket today and noticed the ripples forming in it. I don’t know why but this made me think of spacetime warping. Can quasi local phenomena be somewhat viewed like that dependent on scale?

Viewed like what?

Viewed like what?

 

The blanket. If you take part of the blanket and expose it to some force it will radiate out, and if you took a certain part of the blanket and slowed it down incredibly you would have locality I think for that section of blanket for X amount of time, but its not like true locality as in isolated, which I guess kind of touches on reference frames perhaps?

I think you're in danger of trying to use an analogy (limited by definition) as a true representation of nature, and I concede that my knowledge is not great enough to continue with you down this cogitatively empirical path.

A path to the unknown! Yar!

 

Try to see if you can make what you're saying into mathematical sense by assigning values to things and formulating a working equation that describes the phenomena as applying generally to spacetime. If you can and it can be verified in experiment then you will have successfully expanded science.
