Series 101
Foundations
Causality and Attraction
What persists when almost everything inside a system is changing?
Causality and Attraction
Two series.
Fourteen points of entry.
Choose a field that matters to you. Each volume applies the research program to a different question; reading the complete series is not a prerequisite.
Volumes 1–12
Series 1
Series 102
Climate & ecology
The Climate Continuum
What changes when climate intervention is judged by the living systems it must preserve?
Series 103
Geography & scientific maps
The Antarctic Enclosure
How much of a scientific conclusion is created by the boundary of the map used to reach it?
Series 104
Mathematics & geometry
Numbers and Enclosures
What if number describes a position inside an enclosure before it describes a quantity?
Series 105
Physics & cosmology
The Origin of Cosmology
Can cosmology preserve its successful models while releasing them from the impossible burden of explaining every scale?
Series 106
Research methods
Nested Causal Models, Maps, and Interventions
Can the recurring architecture of the series become a falsifiable, reusable discipline rather than remain a narrative insight?
Series 107
Mind & cognition
A Continuum of Cognitive States
Can a person change the state from which action becomes available while preserving agency and a reliable path home?
Series 108
Time & measurement
The Clock
Can time be measured without flattening the clocks, boundaries, and changing rates that make passage observable?
Series 109
Technology & access
The Hacker
What happens to a technological civilization when the law governing access also governs how its people may learn where their systems fail?
Series 110
AI & collaboration
CodeX
What persists across hundreds of millions of tokens when context is compressed, tools change, and direction must repeatedly be recovered?
Series 111
Cities & public life
The Civic Enclosure
What changes when homelessness is modeled as a missing function of the city rather than a defect or category of person?
Series 112
Authorship & knowledge
The Signal
What should we measure when a detector can estimate resemblance but cannot observe the research process, establish authorship, or decide whether an idea is new?
Volumes 1–2
Series 2
Series 201
Resources & industry
Rare Earth
What must a society sustain to make rare earths available, and what remains when the product leaves?
Series 202
Money & political economy
Currency
What gives a monetary claim its value, and what must remain available for it to be honored?
