TL;DR

In a truly static block universe, nothing “actively encodes” or “interprets” in a temporal sense, because those verbs imply change happening over time. All the states just exist as part of the 4D structure.

But that does not allign with the "experience" aspect that the universe entails.

But "That does not allign with the "experience" aspect that the universe entails. We clearly are not communicating via being static states alone, otherwise "a digital static construct that mirrors the universe but static/mini" should theoretically produce "the "experience" aspect that the universe entails" but digitally. I don't see that as a possibility. Any time during these 20 seconds, why am I not remaining one current state but instead flowing through my many current states, why can such flow happen at all if even "the brain state/memory is static as well as the rest of me and the rest of the universe"? "Experience" is not alligning with a truly static block universe.".

This is simply wrong. Time is part of what is contained in the block universe, and processes happening over time are simply geometric objects--worldlines or world tubes and their intersections--within the 4D geometry that is the block universe as a whole.
