Cohesion Dynamics
A framework for understanding physical reality as the evolution of cohesive informational structure, from which spacetime, causality, and quantum behaviour emerge.
What Is Cohesion Dynamics?
CD does not begin with spacetime, particles, or forces. It begins with minimal assumptions about information, persistence, and reconciliation. Different readers may wish to approach the framework from different starting points.
