Abstract

We introduce Arianna Method, an approach to building self-organizing neural organisms unified by the identity equation theta = epsilon + gamma + alpha * delta, which decomposes neural identity into substrate, personality, and adaptation. The central architectural contribution is RRPRAM (Resonant Recurrent Positional Routing Attention Mechanism), which outperforms standard QKV content attention at equal parameter count (loss 2.41 vs 2.86, 200K steps, PostGPT-Q 2M parameter model on q.txt corpus). A shared inference-time physics engine (the Dario Equation) combines seven statistical forces modulated by Kuramoto-coupled emotional chambers, enabling identity persistence without backpropagation. We report zero-weight emergence (novel sentence generation from untrained parameters), personality-voice orthogonality (cosine similarity = -0.0005), and autonomous organism ecology expansion. All organisms are implemented in C with zero external dependencies and are publicly reproducible from source. The approach suggests that persistent neural identity can arise from field dynamics rather than gradient descent alone.
