Abstract
In determining the temporal components of the process of prediction-making, it was established that everything that has factually become in clock-time presupposes prior “becoming” of itself in absolute time; or, to put in other words, absolute time is pre-temporal in that it already elapsed prior to the objective clock-time “in” which something became real.

Notes
I. Kant, CRITIQUE OF PURE REASON, A 220. B 268.
See Max Delbrück, MIND FROM MATTER (Palo Alto: Blackwell, 1986), esp. pp. 31ff.
Delbrück’s biogenetic theory of perception possesses valuable implications for the phenomenology of perception (Husserl, Merleau-Ponty, Scheler) of which Delbrück seemingly was not aware.
