The Genesis Sequence builds itself.
Seventeen rungs, six phases — binary substrate to holographic entropy. Each rung is a pass/fail invariant test against the next polytope. Press play; scrub anywhere. The whole forcing chain runs in the open. Five sub-rungs below rung 0 (the mechanical genesis of the gate set itself) are derived in Paper 38 and verified by the standalone mechanical_genesis_verification.py.
The whole ladder, at a glance.
The condensed view: eleven rungs, three thresholds, one phase transition. Read it; then press play below to watch it build.
Zero free parameters at every step. Each structure forced by the one before it.
Now watch it build.
Two binary substrates
Two binary registers couple across a shared rotation R_inter. The mean entanglement settles at 4/3 — the triple avoided crossing — and that constant 4/3 is the seed every later rung descends from.
