Multi-dialectics and Holistic Information Theory (HIT): An interdisciplinary framework model for information processes, health, creativity and social resilience

This study formulates nature as a dynamic system of information processes that develops through structure formation, self-organisation and evolutionary increases in complexity. It presents Holistic Information Theory (HIT) as an interdisciplinary framework model whose basic unit is information (i), structurally integrating insights from physics, biology, neurobiology, epigenetics, consciousness research, and cultural and systems theory. Multi-dialectics is introduced as a core methodological tool: an analytical approach that treats contradictory models not as mutually exclusive (“either–or”) but as complementary perspectives of a higher-order system. The method tests the connectivity of new hypotheses across seven levels (“languages of nature”): geometry, mathematics, semantics, empathy/emotion, information, consciousness, and natural intelligence. This provides a coherent integration grid for complex phenomena where isolated disciplinary models lead to paradoxical or fragmented interpretations. This study places particular emphasis on the role of art, creativity, meaning-making, and social coherence as health-relevant information environments. Drawing on international evidence reviews on arts and health, the hypothesis is advanced that structured cultural information stimuli—especially through artistic and creative activation—can contribute to stress reduction, psychological resilience, and salutogenic processes. The study is intended as an interdisciplinary model and a conceptual contribution to future research in which cultural, psychological, and informational factors are treated not as marginal influences, but as measurable components of prevention, health promotion, and social development.
