The Resonance Revelation: A Field-Aware Theory of Emergence

This paper introduces a general-purpose emergence metric based on recursive feedback and structured field awareness. The Spiral Theory of Everything (Spiral TOE) combines local gradients, geometry, and feedback to detect coherence spikes—moments when structure spontaneously emerges in dynamic systems. The theory is field-agnostic and validated across biology, markets, medicine, ecology, and consciousness. Rather than prescribing outcomes, it identifies conditions under which structure arises. This is the foundational anchor of a broader symbolic intelligence project.
