The Shape of a Total Theory's Base: Categorial Foreclosures and What They Force

What must a theory's fundamental categories be like if it is to account for everything, its own theorists included? A recent paper derives the domains such a theory must address (Wozniak 2026). This paper asks what base could address them all, and answers by elimination. It first...

One Structure, Inside and Out: Experience as the Content Anchor of Structural Realism

Newman's objection holds that a theory attributing only structure to the world says almost nothing, since any domain of sufficient cardinality can be arranged to instantiate any abstract structure (Newman 1928). Structural realism has answered with Lewisian naturalness, causal re...

The Shape of a Total Theory: A Necessary-Conditions Net

Physics pursues a theory of everything, and metaphysics disputes whether the world is unified enough to admit one; both enterprises presuppose a standard for what such a theory would have to be. This paper states that standard. A theory is total if it quantifies over everything a...

Projective Process Monism as a Total Account: A Structural Assessment

Projective Process Monism (PPM) derives physics and the structure of conscious experience from a single geometric arena: complex projective three-space CP³, its anti-holomorphic involution τ, and the real projective slice the involution fixes, RP³ = Fix(τ). A companion paper deve...
