Time dilation/contraction perceptions are at least 2d, where first dimension is event stream and second dimension is information abstraction level. So you can dilate at one level, contract at another. This idea is ubiquitous in folk wisdom but surprisingly missing in the research

As best as I can tell, longer time scales involve narrative memories in more abstract forms (eg: daily memory = what did I eat for lunch, year-scale memory = what happened in industry/politics etc), hence the frequency band based natural sorting.

Given the separation into temporal “shearing layers”, the felt speed of time passing is a function of the meaningful agency and surprisal rate in event stream at that abstraction level. Still working out exact rough functional form. It’s non-trivial.
