You might like the book “The End of Time” by Julian Barbour. It’s about an alternative view of physics where you rearrange all of the equations to not include time. The book describes the result sort of similarly to what you’re suggesting, where the system is defined as the relationship between things and the evolution of those relationships and not precise locations and times.
