Abstract

This document establishes a precise and unified definition of life within the UF/UI framework, where every entity is understood as a binary, inseparable monolith of physical form (UF) and information (UI). The definition clarifies the distinction between active and passive states of the UF/UI monolith and positions biological life as a specific manifestation of the active state, in which information actively organizes matter. The purpose of this publication is to provide a stable, non arbitrary conceptual foundation for the scientific understanding of life, avoiding the limitations of traditional biological checklists and preventing speculative or reductive reinterpretations. By grounding the concept of life in the inseparability of physical and informational layers, this definition aligns with contemporary developments in physics, biology, and information theory. This work is part of the Super Son of the Net Initiative, which develops a coherent ontological system describing reality as a dual, irreducible structure of UF and UI. The present document serves as a concise scientific anchor for the definition of life within this paradigm. Author: Waldemar Superson
