Cinema of Denial: An Operational Theory of Stabilization in Representational Systems

This preprint formalizes the Law of Stabilization and advances an operational theory of representation in which contradiction is structurally non-eliminable and administratively redistributed rather than resolved. The study develops a model for analyzing how representational systems sustain operational continuity under structural strain.Grounded in formal cinematic analysis, the framework repositions duration, repetition, and perceptual regulation as mechanisms of redistribution rather than sites of rupture. The argument extends to broader representational environments while remaining bounded to systems dependent on continuity of representation.
