  We describe the short-distance properties of the spacetime of a system of D-particles by viewing their matrix-valued coordinates as coupling constants of a deformed worldsheet $\sigma$-model. We show that the Zamolodchikov metric on the associated moduli space naturally encodes properties of the non-abelian dynamics, and from this we derive new spacetime uncertainty relations directly from the quantum string theory. The non-abelian uncertainties exhibit decoherence effects which suggest the interplay of quantum gravity in multiple D-particle dynamics.
