A Multidimensional Architecture of Organized Reality (1–16D): A Recursive Framework Across Psychological, Social, Biological, and Planetary Scales
Abstract
Explanatory frameworks across psychology, sociology, anthropology, and ecology frequently fragment organized reality by treating scale as a disciplinary boundary rather than a structural property of systems. As a result, phenomena are routinely explained at inappropriate levels: psychological models are tasked with resolving civilizational conditions, social structures are reduced to individual pathology, and ecological constraints are reframed as symbolic or cultural narratives. This paper proposes a sixteen-dimensional architectural framework that organizes reality from embodied sensation to planetary deep time. Psychological, social, generational, species-level, and ecological phenomena are conceptualized as overlapping expressions of a recurring fourfold pattern: isness, interaction, structure, and whole process. Disciplinary overlap is embedded directly within the dimensional architecture rather than appended post hoc. The framework functions not as a totalizing theory, but as an orienting architecture designed to clarify scale, reduce category error, and support coherent interdisciplinary reasoning.
