Summary
AI-generated from the abstractThis paper presents a metaphysical framework in which consciousness is a passive reader of a block universe hosted by a pre-geometric substrate, integrating relativity, quantum-information no-go theorems, the filter/transmission theory of mind, and cyclic cosmology. Claims are tagged by epistemic status, and independent published conclusions are cited for priority. The author presents this as a self-aware lens rather than a falsified theory, with the Markdown document as the single source of truth.

Abstract
A working metaphysical framework that treats consciousness as a passive cross-slice reader within a block universe hosted by a pre-geometric substrate, integrating relativity, quantum-information no-go theorems, the filter/transmission theory of mind, and cyclic cosmology. Every claim is tagged by epistemic status ([Fact] / [Fact-eq] / [Hypo]) with sources; where the framework's conclusions are independently reached by published researchers they are cited for priority, not confirmation. Presented as a self-aware lens, not a falsified theory. The single source of truth is the Markdown document; the full changelog is in Appendix A.
