The illusion of motion and the nature of time are strange and way over my head, I get a headache just thinking about it. I guess motion is just a snapshot of stationary objects that when observed over time give the illusion of motion. If you look at a thousand of these sequential snapshots in one second the motion appears to be fast compared to looking at them over a period of a thousand years. And since time is relative to the observer, etc...
I guess time (whatever that is) is the thing that keeps all things from happening at once, LOL.

And like Phage, I wonder if there is a minimum unit of time (digital) or can something like time (or anything for that matter) be truly analog?
