Epochē as Asymptotic Approximation to the Forbidden Attractor: An Ontodynamic Interpretation in Metamonism
PhilPapers (PhilPapers Foundation) February 16, 2026 Andrii Myshko
The article reinterprets the phenomenological concept of epochē—the suspension of naturalistic assumptions to access pure phenomena—through the lens of metamonism, a proto-ontology that rejects absolute self-identity and requires continuous differentiation. In this framework, epochē is not a revelation of being's ground but an asymptotic approach of the cognitive node toward Fix, a structural singularity equivalent to Nothing. It functions as a local minimization of differentiation (Diff), redistributing the process into pre-symbolic registers and serving as a phase of retuning within the general flow of Λffffffff, rather than its goal. Metamonism thus removes epochē's metaphysical claim, returning it to productive dynamics of differences.
