Are spinor wave functions describing e.g. But the local neighborhood around each point still looks like the (3+1)-dimensional spacetime of special relativity, and therefore has a time dimension which behaves differently from the three space dimensions.

Something to do with the correspondence between spinors and even elements of a Clifford algebra, and somehow needing 4pi radians to complete a rotation. Concretely, consider a space-time of finite volume (because infinities make everything much more complicated), and randomly sprinkle a finite number of points on it. Fuzzy geometry via the spinor bundle, with applications to holographic space-time and matrix theory.
