experience of time).

Yes, the S4Grz (and actually the S4Grz1, but also the X* and X1*) can
be seen as " first person or subjective time" logic, and they are close
to Brouwer's theory of "time/consciousness", which has a long story
from Heracliteus, StAugustin, Bergson, Brouwer, etc. Except that most
of those philosopher, perhaps like David and George, makes such a first
person time primitive.
With comp, the experience of "Space" is more problematic.

I do think that subjective time is inseparable from consciousness, or
at least from mundane consciousness ( as opposed to some ecstatic high
level form of experience sometimes described by mystics as being beyond
time).
