The Symbol. (Don't take it mystical, it's a differential quantity, irreducible, which acts as a "qualia" yet a better, non-dual version.)
How to imagine eg. the triangulation, and ultimately the existence of Symbols as conceived in the Symbols Framework. A modeling capacity that happens along the vertical arc of an instance within a niche. The pattern that sits like a veil within the "life form", what the, and above the cells and neurons - yet not in language, but the primary expression of their embodiment, environment and phenomenal by its very nature. This assumed entity is beyond the common conceptual ones (symbols in the traditional sense), they are the mediators that sits in between the arc and a late meaning making space through means of uttering. An entire orthogonal space that moves also in the opposite sense of imprinting, modeling the life form. From this view I see a new kind of science and philosophy of Symbols and Symboliad unfolding.
The Symboliad. (The web of the Symbols.)
One can imagine that in between any "visible" system there are some "invisible" forces and perception means too. At the same time, in between the arc and the environment and the colony, there is the potential that soft spaces are enacted as means of phenomenal drives. Within an orthogonal space that sits above the system, it is turning to be the "real" system that mediates the movement of the elements in the mix. To the extent that it gives means of what a "form of life" becomes. The Symboliad represents the very "soft-ware" space that is characteristic to every life form - because the "life matter" (anything that scaffolds itself through differentials in its pattern - even systems like the Gaia and AI) has this capacity of spaces creation and ultimately become operated by them in their colony.
The Symbols Framework provides explanatory insights which would seem to account for a compelling view in Quantum Mechanics too. One can see the connection between terms such as retro-causality, superposition, observer and framework's "cone" in Symboliad, orthogonal space, self-domestication, and what it entails being in a sqewed-like projection that has no phenomenal meaning attached.
A space which prepares one to see in a way as it is itself modeled, and seem, is also essentially constructed (arc.)
Some insights: Meaning emerges from a changed past. Time requires specific systems in order to exist. A system that changes its past, can have a future. Past's "residue" goes into orthogonal in veil, modelling Symboliad. Interpretative filter and the potential in evading halting problems. One can not deny a Symbol: they are in the (bio-)electrical substrate, stored (Coil-Magnetic Field analogy). By being so, it implies also what it is and bounds also what it is not. The emergence of logic, intelligence, learning (causal nexus, rules). The agency is "thin" because of "half the questions-half answers" medium emerged. Access consciousness seems to be dissolved. From the level of description of items (within the cone) one can not exclude the items unless one changes the past, etc. (See video.)
