This foundational publication introduces the ESP-SEP Framework and the Emergence Equation (Em), a tool to quantify symbolic emergence across systems. It integrates coherence, collapse, and complexity into a unified model applicable to physics, AI, infrastructure, and cosmic design.
The first formal law in the ESP-SEP framework,

This publication introduces the first formal law in the ESP-SEP framework, derived from Conway’s Game of Life. It defines the Symbolic Collapse Equation and explores coherence pressure, recursive ignition, and entropy resonance through symbolic mathematics.
