Civilisations do not simply make choices. They fall into rhythms — and the future may depend on learning how to change the music.
Applied Field Logic proposes that persistence is not found in things, but in maintained relationships. This paper develops the mathematical foundations of that claim.

Applied Field Logic: Why?
The aim of Applied Field Logic is to provide a common mathematical language for describing (ie systemic) patterns of organised persistence.

We require forms of language capable of representing continuity without losing the ability to act locally within it, models capable of preserving the relationship between part and whole without reducing one to the other.
