This paper presents a conceptual framework in which the apparent three-dimensional universe and the flow of time are emergent features of a projection from a higher-dimensional whole. The higher-dimensional structure is static and timeless; what we call "change" and "time" arises from the dynamic feedback between the full higher-dimensional reality and its reduced three-dimensional representation. All information is preserved in the higher-dimensional structure, with apparent entropy increase resulting from the constraints of dimensional mapping that continuously affects the higher-dimensional state. At macroscopic scales, the projection appears smooth, giving rise to classical spacetime. At very small scales, artifacts of the projection may be detectable, offering a potential explanation for quantum phenomena. The framework is aligned with existing approaches in theoretical physics, including the holographic principle, loop quantum gra
