THE IDEA / PLAIN LANGUAGE
What it says.
Your DNA is like a giant computer program, and your body has a security guard made of light + tiny electric signals that decides whether each tiny code change gets to stick. Cancer is what happens when a bad code change sneaks past the guard. Getting old is the guard getting tired.
THE ARGUMENT / TECHNICAL
Abstract.
Formalizes DNA as a version-controlled codebase whose updates require validation by a biophotonic / bioelectric signaling layer — the Light Code. The protocol has three phases: (1) modification proposed (mutation, epigenetic rewrite, recombination, horizontal transfer), (2) compatibility evaluated as a phase-coherence inner product against the local sinusoidal Light Code field, (3) commit or reject. The compatibility threshold is itself a function of the spectral entropy of the bioelectric coordination network — high entropy → stringent gate, low entropy → permissive gate. Cancer is an ungated commit. Aging is gate degradation. Reproduction is gate reset. Four falsifiable predictions are derived.
