# Spiral Information Geometry (SIG) Overview
|
|
|
|
Spiral Information Geometry (SIG) frames knowledge, agents, and state transitions on a spiral manifold. Positions on the spiral capture both path dependency and growth, letting identities be located in a geometry that encodes recurrence, divergence, and convergence of information.
|
|
|
|
## Intuition
|
|
|
|
The spiral represents the "road" of an evolving system:
|
|
|
|
- **Path dependency:** Movement along the spiral encodes history; nearby turns contain echoes of prior states.
|
|
- **Growth:** Radial expansion reflects accumulation of capability, context, and commitments.
|
|
- **Recurrence:** Angular positions revisit themes, allowing cyclic patterns to be recognized and journaled.
|
|
|
|
## Components
|
|
|
|
- **Factorization:** Prime factors or salient attributes define how an agent decomposes into building blocks. These factors map to angular slots or branches.
|
|
- **Layers:** Radial layers capture maturity, certainty, or energy of a factor; inner layers represent seed states, while outer layers represent committed, externalized knowledge.
|
|
- **Factor Trees:** Trees organize factors into nested structures that can be rendered onto the spiral to show composition and inheritance.
|
|
|
|
## Applications
|
|
|
|
- **Agent mapping:** Place agents or subsystems on the spiral to track capability clusters and blind spots.
|
|
- **Contradiction surfacing:** Overlay contradictions as perturbations or opposing vectors at specific angles.
|
|
- **Capability planning:** Use the spiral to plan expansion paths, balancing radial growth with angular diversity.
|
|
|
|
## TODOs
|
|
|
|
- Formalize a mapping from factor trees to spiral coordinates (radius, angle, rotation history).
|
|
- Define metrics for distance and similarity between agents on the spiral.
