Abstract

The State-Cloud of Light: Deconstructing Geometric Optics and Proposing a Processual Photonic Information Network. Classical and post-classical physics primarily describe light through a dualism between isolated geometric rays (corpuscles) and mathematically abstract wave functions. This reduction overlooks the inherent information capacity and collective dynamics of electromagnetic fields. The present work deconstructs this geometric-mechanical approach. It introduces the concept of the *photonic state-cloud*—a space-filling, continuous network of oscillations that does not transport information via translation, but rather maintains it instantaneously as a holistic structural field within space. Drawing on technological analogies (radio, CD, Blu-ray, optical sensors) and cosmological phenomena (the heliosphere, galactic rotation), it demonstrates that orientation, imaging, and cosmic dynamics (expansion) are emergent properties of a self-referential space of photonic reflection. The postulation of hypothetical constructs such as dark energy or dark matter thus emerges as a methodological artifact resulting from an incomplete field-theoretic perspective.The second treatise, which outlines the "Processual Universe," presents a radical, unit-free reinterpretation of Einstein’s theory of relativity and quantum mechanics.
