It is its own shadow.

A torus floating against a dark background. This torus is its own negative space. It is a singularly continuous topological surface that is unbroken but that also contains at its core an absence, a discontinuity and a recursive entanglement. The identity theorem (here) is that logical incompleteness precisely is the presence of an unbounded and indefinitely-extensible dynamical systems property that we would otherwise call “entropy”. Or “time”.

There is at least one additional level to this entity. Both inverse images are of course the same, single and unified system. Each contains the other as a kernel core of absence and on a gradient of difference that is of course nothing if not a globally-distributed systems property.

This distributed difference also functions to bind the overall dynamical unity of the abstract entity together. Each contains the other such that in this way the ensemble and sum of all sub-systems contains itself.

It is the difference that binds.
