In regards to the above
Again what is the representation built of in a given instant in time?

The representation isn't built in an instant and uses parallelism, as noted.

My question is not on how long it takes to make the representation, but rather at a given instance what are the event pertaining to it?
To put t another way the representation must exist at a given instant for it to exist at all right?
For example does what happened I sec ago exist now ? no what is to happen in a second from now exist now ? no
So you should be able to map out the events pertaining to the representation from instant to instant right?
