P. W. Anderson, doi:10.1126/science.177.4047.393 active draft. a technical sketch. general, before special —alignment, before distraction Fifty years on, the question is not whether more is different ^[ Is is ], nor how more is different in distinct special cases ^[ Such as the plural disciplinary scopes of concerns of fundamental physics, for example ]—but how more is different universally—across very different universal phenomena Assume a coherent universe More is different because the causality of temporally non-continuous spacetime, is precedence variant, and phenomenal composition –and subsequently, circumstantially evaluated causal structure, is formative to causal precedence....

Coherence is a measure of alignment, and arbitrarily scoped: Universal phenomena align Isolated scientific disciplines are not aligned coherence – scope example: a movie is a hierarchically scoped composition composed of sequences which are composed of scenes which are composed of shots every shot ( scene, sequence, and the movie itself ) is a distinct scope of concern and every scope will be assessed for coherence within scope relative to other scopes, where appropriate every scope must be directly assessed for coherence it is entirely possible for a scope to be considered incoherent even in the case all constituent scopes are considered coherent coherence – reconcilable primitives example:...

active draft. a technical sketch. general, before special —alignment, before distraction Controversial matters, to be addressed. meditation practice From meditation practice to all universal phenomena? Sounds woo! Nope For any two ideas, prefer that which is closer to a common, non-exotic understanding of our universe Compositional mechanics is, loosely, ’mechanics and periodic table all the things' consciousness You’ve figured out consciousness?! prove it! Yep, that’s the intention Primitives and principles will be built up, because all phenomena can be explained by the circumstances in which they arise and participate We evolved, ergo consciousness evolved, which is a helpful set of constraints to work within, when reasoning the space of all scientific anomaly Evolution works by simple means: what evolves is phenomenal structure; structure is compositional; compositional mechanics So consciousness will be explained in terms of evolution and structure, and the mechanics of phenomenal composition Which leads to ...

active draft. a technical sketch. general, before special —alignment, before distraction Coherence is an evaluated measure of relative alignment, which implicates phenomenal and causal structure. phenomenal structure is analogous to causal state Causal structure is analogous to phenomenal structural mutation Incoherence is an alignment issue, and implicates structural discontinuation.

active draft. a technical sketch. general, before special —alignment, before distraction territory is coherent: our maps ought to be ^[ essential, formative maps of territory ]. we can do better introduction It is a challenge to attempt to define truth so early in this writing, but given the subject matter, conclusions and claims, an early definition seems essential: to establish a foundation, and a credibility, for what follows. Over the course of the exercise, a set of tools for thought will be developed, to be used to interrogate and describe universal phenomena for which we presently have no good explanation, nor definition: phenomena like human intelligence, consciousness, and universal common measures, for example...

everything is draft – or not, it depends introduction “there is no greater impediment to the advancement of knowledge than the ambiguity of words” - Thomas Reid The ambiguity of words complicates writing. Especially technical writing, with an ambitious objective: to communicate definite, specific, ideas, well-enough, to result in the formation of sufficiently equivalent ideas in the mind of a reader. “it is what we know already that often prevents us from learning” - Claude Bernard...
