Function in corpus
Master ontology and authoritative source for the entire corpus. All later papers either clarify one regime transition, develop a downstream consequence, or apply the framework to dynamics, governance, and AI.
Details
The master document lays out the regime ladder Ī ā R ā I ā A ā V ā M ā P and treats ontology as a conditional architecture of organization. Its central move is to replace object-first metaphysics with a disciplined account of what kinds of systems can arise, persist, and scale once certain structural conditions obtain. The paper is explicitly non-empirical and non-normative: it does not propose mechanisms, algorithms, or moral prescriptions, but a derivational framework. ā¢ Connected papers: Informational Ontology ā Condensed Master; Systems, Boundaries, and Re-Identifiability; Constraint Ordering and Direction; Constraint-Type and Explanatory Levels
