Thanks for the reference. From the essay:

1.In the real universe it is always some present moment, which is one of a succession of moments. Properties of mathematical objects, once evoked, are true independent of time.

2. The universe exists apart from being evoked by the human imagination, while mathematical objects do not exist before and apart from being evoked by human imagination.

> In the real universe it is always some present moment

That is rather naive. The entire succession of moments can be described as one object, in which time is a dimension. The unfolding through time is just the subjective experience of the human consciousness.

Some H.264 video also appears to unfold, presenting a depiction of events frame by frame. Yet, at the same time, it's also just a 1.2 gigabyte file: a giant integer.
