"[the] concept of binding by synchrony in the #brain is strikingly analogous to how pattern stability is understood in the frequency-centric view of a process ontology" The Mass-Frequency Identity (m=ω) Matter, Energy, Information, and Consciousness as a Unified Process Ontology of Reality.

This document introduces a novel process ontology, proposing that reality is fundamentally a dynamically self-generating and self-organizing system. This intrinsic, irreducible drive towards self-organization through continuous activity is termed Autaxys. The universe is conceptualized as a foundational, dynamic medium or substrate undergoing continuous, iterative processing orchestrated by Autaxys. Observable phenomena do not arise as static entities composed of substance, but as dynamic relational patterns within and of this fundamental medium, created and sustained by its intrinsic process. From this perspective, the universe operates as a fundamentally computational system, where the dynamic medium serves as the substrate, the processing represents the ongoing computation, and Autaxys is the inherent principle or engine driving and structuring this computation that generates and sustains all phenomena. A central tenet emerging directly from this process ontology and the principle of Autaxys is a frequency-centric view of reality. Within the fundamental dynamic medium, all phenomena—from fundamental fields and elementary particles to complex systems—are understood as dynamic relational patterns characterized by intrinsic processing frequencies or rates of change. This perspective reveals a profound connection between General Relativity and Quantum Mechanics. Using natural units, these established equations lead directly to the fundamental identity . This identity, a mathematical consequence of accepted physics when unit conventions are removed and illuminated by the process ontology, asserts that in a unit system aligned with nature’s fundamental constants, a pattern’s rest mass is numerically identical to its intrinsic angular frequency. Illuminated by this process ontology and the principle of Autaxys, the identity compels a reinterpretation of mass. Mass is viewed not as inert substance but as a stable, resonant state—a self-sustaining standing wave pattern—within the fundamental dynamic medium. It represents the energy and informational complexity of this pattern, fundamentally determined by its characteristic processing frequency, specifically the Compton frequency. Physical entities are thus dynamic, information-theoretic patterns, suggesting the universe operates as a fundamentally computational system processing frequency-encoded information. Mass signifies stable, self-validating information structures within this cosmic computation, solidified and maintained by the dynamics of the fundamental process orchestrated by Autaxys. This perspective effectively dissolves traditional dualisms (e.g., information vs. substance, discrete vs. continuous) by asserting that dynamic relational patterns processed within the fundamental medium are the fundamental ontological basis; information and substance, discreteness and apparent continuity, are unified as inherent aspects of these patterns and the Autaxic process that sustains them. This framework offers significant explanatory power: accounting for the cosmic drive towards increasing complexity inherent in Autaxys and the mathematical elegance of physical laws, providing a conceptual bridge between GR and QM by interpreting both as descriptions of the fundamental medium’s dynamics at different scales orchestrated by Autaxys, and suggesting specific, testable predictions related to the fundamental properties of the dynamic medium and the Autaxic process. The validity of this perspective is assessed by its comprehensive coherence: logical consistency (self-organization/Autaxys, dissolution of paradoxes via processing within the dynamic medium), explanatory breadth (unifying phenomena, explaining , bridging GR/QM, accounting for complexity/laws), compatibility with empirical observation (reinterpreting data, proposing testable predictions), and capacity as a productive foundation for future inquiry. The framework yields specific, potentially falsifiable predictions concerning signatures of fundamental processing granularity, detection of intrinsic medium resonances, anomalies in extreme regimes, and context-dependent variations in emergent parameters.
A philosopher and physicist have a bet about whose theory proves reality. The physicist derides the philosopher's ontology as "metaphysics."
"But it has #math as well," the philosopher replies.
"Well, how can you be absolutely certain it's entirely correct? I spent 30 years on mine and it's over 300 pp," sneers the physicist.
"Actually, there are only 2 formulas, and didn't you say earlier that #Einstein is always right?"

#Autaxic Trilemma: the irreducible tension between three imperatives that are locally competitive but globally synergistic: Novelty (the drive to create), Efficiency (the drive to optimize), and Persistence (the drive to endure). #autaxys #science #reality
The Autaxys Framework—from the Greek auto (self) and taxis (arrangement)—posits that reality is not a pre-existing stage but a computational process that perpetually generates itself. This process is driven by the resolution of a fundamental, inescapable paradox known as the Autaxic Trilemma: the irreducible tension between three imperatives that are locally competitive but globally synergistic: Novelty (the drive to create), Efficiency (the drive to optimize), and Persistence (the drive to endure). These imperatives are in a constant, dynamic negotiation that defines the state of the cosmos at every instant. A universe of perfect order (maximum P and E) is sterile (zero N); a universe of pure chaos (maximum N) is fleeting (zero P). The cosmos is a vast computation seeking to navigate this trilemma, where any local gain for one imperative often comes at a cost to the others, yet global coherence and complexity require the contribution of all three. The laws of physics are not immutable edicts but the most stable, emergent solutions forged in this negotiation. The search for a Theory of Everything is therefore the quest to reverse-engineer this cosmic algorithm: to identify the objective function that arbitrates the Trilemma, the primitive operators it employs, and the fundamental data types they act upon.
