Negative. If -1 squared, is represented as a 90 degree change to real numbers, then how could you physically observe that? Obviously you can't. We can't whatch quantum atoms move 90 degrees from where they are at that time. Answer only the present state must exist in reality, and therefore nothing is moving. Merely a new page of present is placed on top. Thus everything must be able to change all the time with each page). I'm unsure why quantum is the only odd changing part. It's possible that everything (including history) is actually changing but we can't observe it. Can't wait to wake up rich tomorrow.
