Pattern Field Theory

“Time is the decision of a resolved form to stay coherent.”

This axiom redefines time as an emergent property of a pattern choosing to hold itself together.

Duration is not imposed externally. It is born from recursive coherence — the will of the pattern to remain what it is.

In PFT, time is a stabilizing tension — a gradient that maintains shape over transition. Without coherence, time dissolves. Without identity, there is no timeline.
