Dear LizR, The infinite nesting of boxes is one of the possible products of the process that Kauffman is laboring to explain. It can be equally applied to the construction of the natural numbers by starting with the null set and adding layers of brackets, or by the von Neumann constructor<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_number#A_standard_construction>, or symbols systems that make reference to themselves, ... It is, IMHO, a way of mathematically representing the Heraclitean notion of Flux<http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/heraclitus/#Flu> .
