Envelopes, the Sun
You could say communicating with someone who is not there with you is kind of like time travel. Even throwing bottles randomly out to sea, burying aluminum cans in the ground, or eating something without looking at them creates relationships with time. The great writers who visited this region in the past also developed the art of travel in their writings. The three-dimenional ups and downs of time sometimes can be seen moving at a very slow pace. What we have here is a series of fragmented records that exists to help us observe the relative velocity of the past and present.
