Feedback Loops & Adaptation
The behaviour of a system is not determined by its intentions, but by the signals it can sense, process, and respond to. Feedback is the difference between systems that drift into decay and systems that evolve into coherence.
Extraction Logic
When resources are locked behind possession, exclusion becomes a social logic. Ownership doesn’t just determine who controls what, it shapes how people live, how institutions behave, and how society understands value itself.
Scarcity Logic
Scarcity isn’t a natural baseline it’s a structural outcome. Modern systems produce shortage, pressure, and competition not because they must, but because their logic rewards it.
Systems & Incentives
When systems reward one pattern and punish another, behaviour stops being mysterious. Incentives are the primitive code shaping institutions, decisions, and even our sense of self.
