Operatoric Eigenzeit Profiles: Structural Incompatibility, Recursive Conflict Dynamics, and Emergent World-Binding
Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research) May 13, 2026 Timothy Speed
Certain neurodivergent cognitive configurations operate not through functional adaptation to stable social systems but through processual world-binding, a form of cognition grounded in irreversible relational coupling and emergent reorganization. Characteristics often interpreted as dysfunctions—work incapacity, overcomplexity, communicative mismatch, withdrawal, or compulsive structure production—may instead result from conflicts between fundamentally different forms of world organization. Drawing on long-term autoethnographic field research across labour relations, bureaucratic institutions, social conflicts, and artistic practices, the paper identifies recursive cycles in which externally imposed functional structures collapse eigenzeit-based coherence, followed by emergent reorganization and renewed theory production. These dynamics point toward a structural incompatibility between world-binding cognition and simulation-based institutional orders.
