Entanglement, Measurement & Interference Through the Horizon / Metabolic / Ecological Model

1. Entanglement: ecological co-conditioning of horizons

Entanglement becomes much less mysterious once we remove the assumption that potentials are “owned” by particles.

In our ontology:

Entanglement = a shared ecological horizon of potential

• Two loci (traditionally: two “particles”) do not carry separate potentials.

• Instead, they participate in a single ecological field whose structure of readiness, inclination, and ability spans both loci.

• Their behaviour is coherent because the horizon that offers possibilities to each is jointly organised.

Nothing “travels” between them.

Nothing is “signalled”.

There is simply one ecological configuration being cut from different viewpoints.

So:

• Readiness is not a property of A or B, but a distributed readiness of the shared ecology.

• Inclination expresses the patterned biases inscribed in this shared horizon.

• Ability marks what the ecology jointly supports as actualisation.

In other words:

Entanglement is an ecological indivisibility of potential, not a spooky tether between independent individuals.

It is the co-metabolism of a single horizon viewed from multiple points.

2. Measurement: metabolic narrowing of ecological potential

Measurement is not the “collapse” of a wavefunction.

In your ontology:

Measurement = the metabolic act that performs a perspectival cut across the shared horizon

The apparatus does not “discover” a pre-existing value.

It construes a value by metabolising a subset of the ecological potential.

This involves three layers:

Horizon:

The ecology presents multiple inclinations (interference-capable, non-classical, relationally entangled).

Metabolism:

The measurement interaction actively consumes (metabolises) potential.

It creates a new local organisation of readiness, inclination, and ability that is incompatible with the broader ecological superposition.

Ecology:

After the metabolic cut, the ecological horizon restructures—what was once a distributed horizon becomes a new ecological configuration compatible with the measurement event.

So the so-called “collapse” is nothing other than:

• the metabolism of a distributed ecological horizon

• into a locally stabilised organisation of inclination

• instantiated as a specific measurement outcome.

No metaphysical magic. Just relational restructuring.

3. Interference: horizon-level inclination without metabolic commitment

Interference is where your model is particularly sharp.

Interference = the pattern of inclinations in a horizon that has not yet undergone metabolic commitment

Before any measurement:

• The ecology offers multiple possible trajectories.

• These trajectories are not alternatives that “exist simultaneously”;

• They are interacting inclinations within the horizon—readiness structures that modulate each other.

Interference is simply the mutual shaping of inclinations before any actualisation.

A metabolic act (a measurement) commits the system to a specific path.

But without such a metabolic act, the horizon remains:

• pluripotential

• self-modulating

• ecologically interdependent

So interference patterns are not evidence of “many worlds” or travelling waves but of:

a horizon rich in interacting inclinations whose patterns only disappear when metabolic actualisation reconfigures the ecology.

In other words:

Interference ceases when metabolism “cuts” one inclination pathway from the ecological web.

4. The synthesis: Quantum behaviour as multi-scale relational organisation

Putting it together:

Quantum Concept	Horizon	Metabolic	Ecological
Entanglement	Shared pattern of inclinations across multiple loci	—	Distributed ecological horizon; indivisible readiness
Measurement	Multiple inclinations	Metabolic cut construes one outcome	Ecology reorganises around the new local configuration
Interference	Interacting inclinations without commitment	—	Ecology maintains pluripotential structure

The three-layer model thus reframes quantum phenomena as:

• not particle behaviour

• not wavefunction metaphysics

• not observer-centrism

but the dynamics of how horizons of potential organise, metabolise, and ecologically reconfigure.
