Yes - the squares near the mass would not only appear to get smaller - they would be smaller! The speed of light may be a constant but time certainly isn't and distance = speed * time, so distance is relative too!

Possibly, if every second atom simply tunnelled through into another reality (or back to the quantum foam) Newton would turn in his grave. By his understanding energy and momentum would have hugely been violated (and possibly no bang occurs) - as there is no conversion, matter simply fades away into another reality. Einstein meanwhile would shout Eureka and modify relativity to say M-Theory is right, there are multiple realities and there must be away to send matter or energy from one to another. So energy and mass and momentum would be coversed (within a transformation function from one reality to another) across membranes / dimensions.
