the physical world needs a new kernel. its progress is throttled by ossified code.
frontier valley is a jurisdiction governed by physical reality. permission is granted by demonstration of safety and function.
this is a city built as a machine for living. humanoid robots, aerial logistics, and autonomous transit are the substrate. we will live inside the systems we build, iterating in hours.
human agency is the root value. our goal is to increase the vector of human capability. we will prove an economic model where machines handle physical toil, freeing people for discovery and creation.
this is a call to those who build tangible futures. the frontier is here.
all physical and digital property derives from a cryptographic ledger of title.
new value is created through the application of work to matter and information.
the law is open-source code designed to minimize physical coercion and transactional friction.
disputes are first mediated algorithmically with recourse to bonded human arbitration.
commerce is conducted on open protocols, enabling direct exchange between any two agents.
all autonomous systems are registered to a liable human principal.
an agent's operational logic must be auditable upon verified request.
a human's authenticated command has absolute priority over any machine's process.
core infrastructure is a transparently managed commons funded by direct use.
this charter is amendable only by supermajority consensus of its human residents.
a multi-scale computational framework models the global field as an information-theoretic structure. its kernel is a finite-difference time-domain simulation of interacting electromagnetic fields.
the biophysical layer models each human as a complex antenna. electrochemical processes in the heart and brain generate em fields, governed by maxwell's equations for biological tissue. sensor inputs require a global network of high-cadence magnetocardiography and magnetoencephalography data streams.
the planetary layer simulates earth's magnetosphere and ionosphere using magnetohydrodynamic models. this simulation ingests real-time solar wind data from nasa/noaa satellites and ground-based magnetometer arrays. it provides boundary conditions and resonant frequencies for the biophysical layer.
the psychosocial layer is a multi-agent active inference system. each agent's generative model minimizes variational free energy, driving predictive coding across em-coupled nervous systems. this produces emergent empathic resonance and collective behavioral alignment.
