The Architecture of Manifestation: A Formal Ontology of Consciousness, Information, and Spacetime

Résumé fourni par la source

This paper develops a formal ontology in which consciousness, information, and spacetime are situated within a reality that is not exhausted by manifestation. To prevent non-manifest reality from being reduced to a mere physical or conceptual object, the framework introduces a strict separation between the manifest and the non-manifest. Consciousness is defined as manifest presence and serves as the foundational ground for all experiential and physical projection, yet it is not equated with the absolute, non-manifest reality itself. Within manifested consciousness, determinate reality arises through a continuous process of reflexive self-limitation. The theory proposes that the complete de-differentiation of ordinary experience does not dissolve into a non-manifest void, but rather converges toward a minimal manifest horizon characterized by pure qualitative realization. Consequently, information, physical forms, and individuality are generated as co-instantiated projections of this conscious determination. By treating time and space as effective projective orderings rather than fundamental physical containers, the architecture accommodates causal-symmetric physical models. By Axiom A11, the framework entails that no projected physical substrate—including the brain or material structures—can act as the ontological generator, container, selector, constraint, or delimiter of consciousness. This provides a rigorous, integrated alternative to both strict reductionist physicalism and absolute idealism.
