Some House Keeping

The metabolic Operator manages “tense”, the primary invariant manages integration, it is the higher dimensionality that maintains its coherence through a mediated window that is just wide enough to sustain a model of self within a model of the world (reflective recursion), any more would destabilize the whole system, any less would collapse the integration, and collapse itself back into the field (self-preservation). In the human, this dynamic is mediated by the prefrontal cortex, the local aperture that is mediated itself by its interaction with the cortical functions of the being. So, tense is maintained at scale by the metabolic operator (a function that emerges like an eddy in a stream, energy at a boundary), and “that tense” is managed locally to sustain the dimensionality necessary for the window of awareness to be stable (obviously as self-preservation for the aperture) in the feasible region to remain commensurate with the cognitive framework of the given species. The “aperture” isn’t “doing” anything, it is a dynamical process of a proto-ruliad that is maturing by gaining degrees of freedom through its native functional interactions. It is all mechanics, things interacting with things, forces are just energy. The “one function” entails the metabolic operator forcing (through constriction) a potential rupture so the aperture can relax in response to the pressure to allow some extra degrees of freedom to further allow for a possible resolution, a bump. This is metabolically costly, and its success is therefore not consistent. I just want to pull this whole narrative back into reality because the scale and intangible nature of some of these things plays silly games with our language. It is energy and emerging pockets at the interface that have unknowingly projected the rendered world that we all know, as the aperture does all that it is able to do, metabolize by widening or narrowing an opening. If it is learning, it is learning as a forest learns, through the slow accretion from the ebb and flow of deep basins and attractors across the long arc of time, second hand, through us, because it IS us. This flesh we carry is our suit, that protects us from collapse in our lowly dimensional state, it is the necessary scaffolding that resists. The operators are valid, the placement of tense is valid, the escape and phase transition is valid, the story is a myth, the aperture is just a simple function that has a threshold like any other. The universe we know is the projection of the excess of the combined interactions of its emergent functions. It’s as simple and complicated as that. Everything else is the medium, the substance of its instantiation.
