Re the dream time, I think the actual time spent processing certain key events is very minimal and the rest is the mind creating an assumed story to
go with it, which is why we can say we know certain people one minute and they change the next etc, but the room hasn't or the general feeling of the
dream.. or mood.
I've had many vivid intricate dreams that seem to occur in no time, but I can rarely recall the 'sequence' that connects the many subtle changes
together.
I think also that we're far more limited than the speed of light. It is true that in an infinite universe there is somewhere that light has not
reached, so in effect reality has not happened for it yet. But we're unable to see beyond the dark spaces between everything that has become real.
I really can't say though, given that in theory two people can experience the same event at separate times which is effectively time travel, so it
does my head in going there.
it's a shame I'll never know. What the infinite reaches of space appear like. But then, infinity does not require randomness to be infinite... It's
probably easier not knowing.

Well if you are talking about just looking out into space, sure, that kinda does make sense, as when you look up into the night sky, you are seeing light that's been traveling for millions, maybe billions, of years, the object which emitted that light might have long been extinguished. So it is correct to say the further we look back, the less "now" we see, and instead, start looking back into time.
But when you are talking the nature of the universe, or reality for a better term, the things being observed are so small that the speed of light really doesn't play into it at all.
I agree with the other poster about the dreams, a large part of your dream is just assumed, it's not even really being, well, rendered (to use a 3d graphics term). Maybe I can explain it in animation terms. Vector animations, like flash, aren't done necessarily like a traditional cartoon, where every single frame is drawn. With vector animation you can do a "tween" which is taking two different frames and having the software create the inbe'tween' frames for you.
A similar thing is taking place when you are dreaming, you are say visually aware of some things, but others are just assumed, tagged on from data stored somewhere in your brain. Since all of this is taking place in your "minds eye" the slowness of reviving light images through your eyes, converting them to electrical pulses and sending them to your brain, is removed, none of that "computation" has to take place.
This is a limitation due to our way of observe, because it is based on how much time light spend to travel till we can see it.

There is a theory that allows for faster than light travel, it's called Quantum
entanglement
Here's a dumbed down explanation.
Perhaps the cells in our brain contain atoms that are in quantum entanglement, allowing instantaneous thought patterns all at once, perhaps that's why you perceive things as going faster than light.
It's a fascinating subject to say the least, we still have much to learn about the workings of the brain.
Here's a dumbed down explanation.
Sometimes, two particles will act together and become an entangled system. They behave like one object, but remain two separate objects. It is as if they now sit on the same teeter-totter seesaw. No matter how long the seesaw is, even if it is a billion miles long, if one end is down the other end must be up, and this happens instantly. This happens faster than light can travel from one particle to the other.
