Abstract : In my first post : Breaking the [Nature-Human] bi-categorical framework of Philosophy I explained why it’s impossible to develop any working metaphysics in the defective [nature-human] immanent thinking framework of Philosophy. I then started to demonstrate a working [matter-life-thought] multi-categorical framework which allowed me to defined Being as a code-controlled structure that deploy itself in 3 obvious topological categories : externally controlled material beings like a pebble, internally controlled living like a bird and “betweenally” controlled thinking beings like 2+2=4.
That constitute the MCogito as a Multi-categorical Cogito, the certainty that reality has an obvious multi-categorical topological nature.
In this post I will complete the set with two boundary categories, quanta and data and show why this 5 set is logically complete as a [ Non-Being [ Being ] ] logical Totality.
4 Structure of the matter–life–thought set
A few fundamental but easy generalizations allow one to quickly establish the underlying structure of a category of Being:
4.1 Bearing category and borne category
The biological category has the bearing category of physics and the borne category of the psychic.
By metaphysical equivalence, let us equalize the other categories: a bearing category is missing for physics, and a borne category is missing for the psychic:
Reality is therefore made up of 5 categories of beings, two of which are currently unknown: primary bearing category > physical > biological > psychic > terminal borne category.
We stop here, because it would be stupidly gratuitous to add other categories: it would bring nothing to the equivalence matter–life–thought and would only add an infinite regress problem.
4.2 terminal category
The TERMINAL category is the numerical category, or the data category. Indeed, it is the most intense category of Being’s self construction: each second it produces far more coded data than during the entire pre digital history of humanity.
The Being-code topology of the data category is identity: since there is only code in the data category there is identity of Being and code. Topologically we pass from the Between, from the normative, to what is intentional proper to each program: the topological of digital Being is of the order of the point, of the particular.
If we posit that the topological distance of Being to its code is the dynamic source of the construction of categories, then the data category no longer has dynamics: it is indeed the terminal category.
In the end was the Code : contrary to what the one category supernatural explanation of religions says, the Word does not appear at the beginning but at the end—or, as Hegel roughly puts it: Truth appears at the End. Code —Being equal to its code— which is computer code, appears at the end.
4.3 primary category
The PRIMARY category is the quantum category: quantum beings are absolutely not material, because they are everything they can be at the same time. A quantum state electron spins both to the right and to the left at the same time, which has strictly no meaning for a material object (with the notable exception of Emmanuel Macron). Two entangled particles constitute a single quantum object that ignores distance and even ignores time: a change on one particle induces instantly the inverse change in the other particle, wherever it may be in space, and even in the past or the future. None of this makes material sense: we are in the presence of a new category, and physicists say that the quantum is the primary category from which the material category of Newton/Einstein macroscopic physics should be deduced by a new theory unifying quantum physics and relativistic physics.
What is the quantum origin cause that makes the electron materialize by spinning to the right or to the left? True randomness: it is intrinsically impossible to compute the electron’s orientation in advance. This is both a logical and experimental truth in quantum mechanics. True randomness cannot be encoded—otherwise we could calculate it and it would no longer be randomness. Non-codability define true randomness.
The Being-code topology of the quantum category is nothingness, i.e., the absence of relation to code through absence of code. It is therefore not an absolute nothingness but a nothingness of Being. Moreover, there is still a dynamics of category creation, since the Being–code topological distance is, in a sense, infinite in the absence of code; one could thus say that the quantum is marked by an infinite thirst for code. In the first diagram, nothingness is signified by the black color, which is the absence of Being-code topology inside quantum particles.
Primary bearing category: since there is no Being-code topology, the logic of passage from a prior topology does not exist either: there is no underlying category beneath the quantum category.
4.4 Logical Totality and topological Reality
With the quantum we have the whole of non Being and Being, of the uncoded and the coded, which constitutes the logical Totality : uncoded>coded with uncoded = quanta and coded = matter>life>thought>data.
Reality is the topological sequence: nothingness–external–internal–between–identity.
4.5 Carrier beings
We notice that the psychic is carried by a specific being belonging to the biological category, namely the human organism; and the biological is carried by a specific being belonging to the physical category: DNA which, although biochemical, is a molecule—a material being—and not a living organism, and therefore belongs strictly to the physical category, the category of matter. After a certain time, a category produces a specific being that carries the next category. These carrier beings are very singular and, in particular, are the only ones to function from code.
We can therefore continue the metaphysical reasoning by adding a carrier being for physics and another for the numerical category, for the moment of unknown nature.
From the carrier being of the terminal category we know that it is an idea since it belongs to the psychic category, and that this idea is itself the bearer of computer code: it is simply the Turing machine, the mathematical idea of what a computer is as Being.
The primary quantum carrier remains unknown; it is the Grail of theoretical physics. But this model allows predictions: it is a quantum object that interprets a quantum code coding material objects (or coding the quantum>material transition, or global relativistic spacetime). The concept In the end was the Code predicts that quantum code is very buried, very convoluted, and therefore very hard to find: indeed this concept shows that reality is a movement toward pure code, so in the other direction we pass from computer code—pure code equal to its Being—to human language, still visible but animal, convoluted with ethnic animality; then to invisible DNA code, buried in the cell and strongly convoluted with cellular constraint; then to quantum code, extremely buried and convoluted. This prediction of quantum code is structurally guaranteed; otherwise the category of matter, no longer homogeneous with the others, would make reality something incoherent, which one could leave to the supernatural psychic reduction performed by the mono categorical religions’ technique of totalization.”
In the next post I will empower categories with a multi-categorical concept of causality that explain why categories are both causally independent and bottom-up constrained i.e. how a category n put constraints on the causally-free category n+1 : A new concept of causality for the matter-life-thought multi-categorical metaphysics
