Expression and reality: a dialogue on communication, constitution, and process philosophy
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract What happens when process philosophy meets communication theory? This article takes up that question through a dialogic inquiry that unfolds in three movements. First, it examines the premises of process philosophy, engaging philosophers such as Whitehead, Simondon, and Deleuze, who conceptualize reality as a dynamic, multifaceted becoming. Next, it develops a process philosophical view of communication and delves into its role in constituting social collectives as relational formations. Finally, the conversation turns to the relation between communication, constitution, and reality, asking how communication might be understood as in-forming the real’s becoming and recursively being in-formed by this becoming. Rather than presenting a linear argument, this article invites the reader into an exploratory movement of thought where meaning emerges in the unfolding of dialogue itself. By embracing this form, the article opens space for reimagining communication theory.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
