RASP-Seizure: A Recursive Attractor Model of Photosensitive Epilepsy with Application to Sunflower Syndrome
Applies the Recursive Attractor Stability Principle (RASP) to model seizure dynamics in photosensitive epilepsy, with specific application to Sunflower Syndrome. The identical recursion f(x) = 25·tanh³(x) − x/124 that derives the proton mass predicts: seizure modes are quantized, the three-node circuit (V1 + Thalamus + Motor) is uniquely seizure-prone via Diophantine selection, peak photosensitivity at 18 Hz (clinical range 15-20 Hz), dual-mechanism drugs outperform single-mechanism (validated: fenfluramine 89% vs levetiracetam 0%), and anti-resonant frequencies exist for non-pharmacological intervention. Validated against 56 primary sources. The sole genetic variant found in Sunflower Syndrome (GABRG2 p.Trp429Ter) destroys a tryptophan — the RASP-critical amino acid. The ratio p/n = 5/3 is the major sixth in just intonation, connecting seizure compulsion to musical anticipation through shared dopaminergic pathways. Ten testable predictions with explicit kill criteria. Fourth paper in the CUFT-RASP series. Research began June 2025. v0.6.
