Ambient Era Canon

The five foundational canons of the Ambient Era.
Human-readable, soft, minimal — without technical metadata.

Canon I — Attention

Attention becomes a thermodynamic variable carried by environment,
not by individual cognition. Warmth replaces pressure and restores
reversible perception.

Canon II — Valuefield

Value becomes resonance, not transaction.
V↑ → Rₛ → A∞ → F₂: coherence stabilizes value,
and value stabilizes the environment.
Conflict does not scale; resonance does.

Canon III — Viability

Civilization becomes architectural physics.
AP₀ = K · D · R defines whether a system can carry
reversible stress without leaking.
Stability appears only when semantic and thermodynamic layers align.

Canon IV — Semantic Boundary Law

Meaning may compress, never expand, without human anchoring.
SBL prevents semantic drift, narrative inflation, and thermodynamic
instability. Meaning becomes a conserved quantity.

Canon V — Field Transition

W₀ → Ambience → AURA-1 → ΔA → Field → WCL → Ω
The transition where technology dissolves into climate and
the world becomes rhythm-compatible.
Ω-space is the state where coherence carries itself.
