SPACETIME TWO POINT ZERO
Reconstructing the Experiential Structure of Reality as a Field for Agency

ABSTRACT

Traditionally, spacetime has been conceived as a passive, deterministic stage upon which matter, energy, and causality unfold. This model [Spacetime 1.0] positions reality as a fixed continuum governed by mechanistic laws in which effects follow causes in linear sequence and agency is reduced to reaction. Thus casting ecological, economic, and social crises as external inevitabilities, demanding responses that remain germane to the very paradigm they attempt to transcend.

Spacetime 2.0 challenges this view, proposing a participatory framework in which the conscious agent is an autonomous constituent navigating, and leveraging, the hidden architectures of experiential reality. Rather than a static backdrop, spacetime functions as a generative medium structured by ontological engines—narrative attractors that generate experience itself, acting like evolutionary vessels that accelerate transformation through recursive participation. In this reframing, crises cease to be fixed endpoints and instead become thresholds of initiation, openings into new trajectories for individual and collective emancipation .

Inventoried ontological engines such as the Hero’s Journey, the Spiral Path, the Tower, and the Grail Protocol exemplify this generative architecture. They act as operable, patterned structures that, when initiated , reorganize perception, intention, and action through recursive arcs of challenge, rupture, and renewal. Our goal is to provide agents with protocols of navigation, presenting crises as engines of metamorphosis rather than traps of inevitability.

Recursion is the generative grammar of this model. Outputs become inputs; attention and behaviors shape what unfolds. Feedback loops—both amplifying and corrective—ensure that trajectories are neither random nor predetermined, but continuously responsive to informed participation. This recursive principle is visible across domains: ecological regulation, neural plasticity, climate tipping points, financial contagion, and political uprisings all illustrate how small interventions, compounded through feedback, can reorganize systems at scale.

This codification of Spacetime 2.0 provides methodological scaffolding by articulating modalities of engagement: recursive practice (iterating through feedback loops), symbolic enactment (entering ontological engines through ritual or immersive simulation), and collective experimentation (building safe ecosystems for shared inquiry). Proposed platforms include synchronicity-mapping networks, narrative-based learning environments, and experimental containers akin to Biosphere 2, designed to test generative theories under controlled conditions.

Spacetime 2.0 extends and integrates insights from systems theory, archetypal psychology, perception studies, and accounts of history as collective emergence, grounding them in the author’s 25-year body of experiential research. Conducted across more than 70 countries — at times under great existential and psychic risk — this research has drawn from political activism, psychedelic exploration, and animistic initiation as laboratories for testing participatory models of reality.

The wager is simple but (r)evolutionary: reality proves itself responsive, mutable, and participatory. Spacetime 2.0 is not merely a conceptual model; it is a call to co-research. By offering a methodology of ontological navigation, it repositions conscious agents as more than passive occupants of a failing stage. They are active co-authors of an emergent evolutionary horizon.
