I've had a similar idea about time. If you imagine the universe as a giant cellular automaton you still have to encode time into the application of transition rules. Unless it's nondeterministic and constantly oscillating, with "forward" sinply having more possible states than "backwards". In that model the universe would be kinda like a block chain, the longer an event is in the past, the less likely it is to be undone by the random walk through the state space. Considering that Spacetime is one unified thing, your weird pet theory to explain gravity is kinda the same than my weird pet theory for time. Nice! :D
