Transitional objects, phenomena and processes belong neither to the inside nor to the outside : they are interfaces which partake in both but are of an ephemeral nature. However, their meaning and function survive as internalized structures. When this happens strong anticipation governs, as the system has internalized a model of the potential space between inside and outside and is able to experience a shared reality as a true individual.

Direct observation, and with it, anticipation of the temporal development of a system, is often limited to one level of descripion. This would not suffice if one wished to detect scaling behaviour in real time. An algorithm is introduced which describes a fractal, nested detector. This nested detector anticipates scaling structures in real time, and registers space time as a function of the Prime Structure Constant. Depending on where the interfacial cut is set, the nested detector could be a brain, a computer program or a mechanical measuring device. Fractal nested detectors are an example of strong anticipation, as the scaling behaviour, which is inherent in the underlying system's dynamics, is adopted by the detector in order to further differentiate its interface.

LODs are abstractions in terms of which an observed system may be described. They highlight different qualitative or quantitative aspects of a system. For nested systems, the outcome of a measurement depends on the observer's position and extension, his internal differentiation and assignment conditions. The concept of interface complexity as a measure of entropy is introduced. Finally, a differentiation is suggested between ΔS (endo), ΔS (pseudo-exo) and ΔS (exo), which correspond to the inside, pseudo-outside and outside perspectives, respectively.

It defines a specific moment as a bifurcation point, a singularity from which new order may emerge. An embedded observer whose fractal temporal interface translates his embedding context accesses the kairos from within, from an endo-perspective. This observer is part of the reality generated at the bifurcation point. In fact, he is part of the kairos, and thus an example of strong anticipation. Syndrome literally means running together. The term is used when the reason that certain features occur together has not yet been discovered or been made explicit. This paper tries to identify and relate what runs together in the kairos: the dynamics of both the observer and his context, which together form an interface with anticipatory properties.

These nested Nows form our observer participant perspective. The degree of attention given to retentions and protentions in our current Nows determines whether our temporal perspective, which is generated by the superposition of nested Nows, focusses more on the past or on the future. Several correlations are described between the balance of retentions and protentions in the Now, perceived temporal speed, temporal dimensions generated, compatibility between levels of description, the observer's mood and perspective and his Now's anticipatory faculty. The common denominator which links these is our nesting speed, i.e., the rate at which we generate Δtdepth.
