Craig, Yes, I'm proposing that spacetime emerges from quantum events. But your second question depends on this since if spacetime emerges from quantum events there can be no physical space since physical space is exactly what we agreed doesn't exist until it emerges from quantum events which are information space computations.
And of course we can experience the universe, though only through our own filters. If we could have no knowledge of reality we could not function within it and could not exist. And our own mental world view is part of reality and we have direct knowledge of that part of reality...
