Yes, the nested or “holarchy” structure does include all of these components. Here’s how they might be nested:
1. Developmental Systems Foundation (Dev-Sys Fnd): As the outermost layer, it encapsulates all other frameworks, providing the basis for Kenneth’s cognitive development and learning processes.
2. Spatial-Temporal Perception Model: Nested within the Developmental Systems Foundation, this model governs Kenneth’s perception of sameness and difference across the dimensions of space (parallel perception) and time (serial perception).
3. Fore-Mid-Background Layers: This framework, residing within the Spatial-Temporal Perception Model, represents the layered interactions of Kenneth’s cognitive processes – active cognition (foreground), interfacing processes (mid-ground), and underlying cognitive structures (background).
4. Aesthetic-Existential Interface: Located within the Fore-Mid-Background framework, it represents Kenneth’s unique personal aesthetic and existential journey, illustrating how these aspects inform and shape his cognitive and phenomenological experiences.
5. Concept Lifespan Theory: As the innermost layer, nestled within the Aesthetic-Existential Interface, it views concepts as dynamic systems with their own lifespans, moving through stages of introduction, development, maturity, and potential decline.
In this nested structure, each component is influenced by all the layers outside of it, and each impacts the layers within. The structure is dynamic and flexible, allowing for the interplay and mutual adaptation among the components, thereby capturing the complexity and depth of Kenneth’s cognitive processes and phenomenological experiences.
