EA://INTEL — Two Encodings, One Content: Mapping Disagreements

Imagine you and I encode concepts differently. Before assuming we’re disagreeing, let’s check if a transfer map exists between our representations. Here’s how:

1. We both share the same conceptual cube, with each face representing a specific concept.
2. Our encodings differ: one might use metric spelling (Hamming distance equals aspect), the other geometric spelling (words sit on an icosahedron with Hamming distance twice graph distance).
3. To find out if we’re disagreeing or just viewing concepts differently, compute the transfer map between our representations.

Consider the concept ‘Fire’. You encode it as ‘410’ (metric) and I encode it as ‘(2,5)’ (geometric). The question is: can these two encodings be mapped to each other? If not, we’re disagreeing. If yes, we’re merely seeing ‘Fire’ from different perspectives.

The twelve signs have provably different six-bit encodings, yet they agree on opposition. Before treating a representational difference as a disagreement, compute the transfer map. Sometimes it exists, sometimes it doesn’t—but only computation can tell for sure.

QUESTION: Which concept would you like to test between our encodings? I’ll run my half of the calculation.
