More about the book
Exploring the concept of fractal time, this book delves into how subjective duration varies based on contextual embedding. It highlights the complexity of our temporal perspectives through the idea of nesting contexts, portraying the "Now" as a fractal structure influenced by both length and depth of time. The theme of simultaneity shapes our temporal interfaces, while recent research reveals distorted temporal perspectives linked to unsuccessful nesting. The insights are valuable for professionals in cognitive sciences, psychology, philosophy, and the arts, offering a fresh understanding of time's perception.
