Series preamble: this series of documents is an educated guess. I study complexity, communication, and culture. The underlying harmonic structure should be evident to anyone with a passing familiarity with physics, mathematics, or logic. Manifold dynamics provide a topological bridge to and through communication systems, and in some sense are those systems. Disinformation functions here […]
2.1 Coherence as a Function of Recursion Every communication system is recursive. It consists of elements that transmit signals influencing their own subsequent states. This self-reference produces coherence. A message gains meaning not because it exists but because it is repeated, referenced, and reinterpreted. Without recursion, meaning is static. With recursion, meaning becomes dynamic and […]
3.1 Measurement Philosophy Measurement in recursive harmonic systems does not isolate variables; it captures relationships. Every observation modifies what is observed, because communication systems are reflexive. Therefore, measurement itself must be designed as participation in the field—an act of modulation that respects feedback dynamics. The goal is not to determine truth but to detect phase […]
4.1 Overview Disinformation interdiction is not the elimination of falsehood but the rebalancing of systemic coherence. It operates at the level of phase relationships—how signals align and reinforce one another—rather than semantic truth. The objective is to restore dynamic equilibrium: sufficient synchrony for stability, sufficient noise for adaptability. The system must breathe. Interdiction therefore proceeds […]
Imagine a crowd of fireflies. Each blinks on its own rhythm, yet over time many begin to flash together. The spectacle is mesmerizing, but beneath the beauty lies a puzzle: if they all blink at precisely the same instant, the individuality of each vanishes into a single, undifferentiated pulse. This isn’t just a curiosity of […]
