  6. The Placebo Effect as Timeline Convergence

    Recasts the placebo effect as the local self converging toward the branch where healing has already resolved, with belief as a correlate rather than the engine.

  7. The Fish and the Signal

    Explains why systems reduce or resist signals from outside their frame, and how repeated low-intensity contact leaves residue that reorganizes them from within.
