Theseus's Lunch: The Contextual Coherence Model as A Theory of Everything
Abstract
Theseus's LunchThe Contextual Coherence Model as A Theory of Everything(1=0) × (0=1) = 1=1 A framework for resolving persistent paradoxes through a single operation. What This Is This paper is deliberately stripped of academic jargon. This isn't compromise for accessibility—it's methodological commitment. If clarity reduces cognitive cost (as the framework claims), then demonstrating the framework should minimize unnecessary complexity in its own presentation. The paper performs what it describes. What It Does The measurement problem. P vs NP. The hard problem of consciousness. Semantic indeterminacy. These paradoxes share a structure: they demand frame-independent answers to frame-dependent questions. The Contextual Coherence Model (CCM) resolves them through frame multiplication: Frame collision creates paradox Frame multiplication resolves it Conservation constrains the operation Boundaries mark where it applies Same pattern across quantum mechanics, computation, consciousness, language, and music. It looks simple. It's not. Until you realize it is. Validation This isn't just theory. The framework generates working solutions. Measured results: 119,969× speedup on NP-complete subset-sum problems 12,100× speedup on constrained optimization Framework correctly identifies its own limits The algorithm wasn't designed—it was discovered through systematic CCM frame-space exploration.
