🧩 Phase 1: The Ontology of Potential and Identity
1. Quantum Superposition and Identity: Who Are You, Really?
We began with the idea that identity itself is not fixed, but a field of meaning potential. Superposition isn’t uncertainty — it’s a structured richness of potential meaning. Actualisation of identity is a construal, not a discovery.
2. Quantum Contextuality: Meaning at the Moment of Measurement
We followed by showing that what becomes actual depends on context — not just physical, but semiotic. Context constrains what meaning potential becomes actualised, underscoring the situatedness of all meaning-making.
🌐 Phase 2: Relational Construal and Co-Actualisation
3. Observer Entanglement: The Co-Instantiation of Worlds
Here, we flipped the standard entanglement metaphor. Rather than spooky action, entanglement becomes mutual constraint in meaning-making — co-instantiation across systems of meaning.
4. Decohering Cosmology: The Myth of a Measurement-Free Universe
We tackled the idea of “objective evolution” head-on. Without a meaner to constrain potential, it makes no sense to speak of the universe unfolding — decoherence is not the end of observation, but the moment of commitment to a meaning instance.
5. Nonlocality: When Meaning Refuses to Stay Put
We reframed nonlocality not as spatial weirdness but as relational meaning. Once two parts of a system are entangled, a construal here reconfigures what meanings are possible there.
⏳ Phase 3: Time, Constraint, and Temporal Participation
6. The Measurement Problem: When the Universe Waits to Be Asked
Here, we clarified that potential is not waiting to “be observed” — it's waiting to be meant. Without a construal, there’s no universe, just potential. Measurement is meaning-making.
7. Delayed Choice: When the Present Chooses the Past
We developed our temporality model — time is the dimension of process, not an independent sequence. The “past” is not fixed until actualised in a present construal.
8. The Quantum Zeno Effect: When Meaning Holds Time Still
Repeated construal prevents new meaning from unfolding. This led to a reflection on psychological fixation, cultural stagnation, and the recursive loops that block potential.
🎭 Phase 4: Ambiguity, Interference, and the Field of Possibles
9. Superposition and Indeterminacy: The Many Meanings of the Unmeant
We returned to ambiguity, this time with a richer lens: not as confusion, but as held potential. Indeterminacy is not a failure of knowing — it’s a space of yet-to-be-meant richness.
10. Wheeler’s Echo: A Participatory Cosmos Revisited
This post gathered the threads. The universe isn’t just passively there — it comes into being through our participation. Not just observed, but meant. This was a pivotal moment of cosmological commitment.
🔁 Phase 5: Reimagining Formalism as Relational Semiotics
11. Path Integrals as the Shape of Potential
Here, we translated Feynman’s formalism into relational meaning: not just paths through space-time, but through potential meaning-space. Actualisation comes from interference among possible construals.
12. Quantum Tunnelling as a Leap in Meaning
We showed that tunnelling isn’t a violation of physics but a move across a semiotic barrier — a sudden actualisation that was previously improbable due to contextual constraint. It’s a metaphor for creative leaps.
🌀 Phase 6: Alternative Metaphysics, Reframed
13. Bohmian Mechanics: The Ghost of Determinism Past
We explored Bohm as an attempt to save causality — and showed that in our model, determinism becomes unnecessary. Potentials don't need trajectories — they need construal.
14. Bohmian Pilot Wave vs. Quantum Field: What's the Difference?
We contrasted Bohm’s metaphysical wave with the quantum field as a relational construct. The pilot wave becomes an artefact of a model that misunderstands actualisation.
15. Pilot Waves and Quantum Fields in a Relational Cosmos
We then reframed both in terms of meaning: whether pilot or field, these are not independent realities, but structured meaning potentials actualised in relation to meaners.
