1 Entangled Processes: Coherence Across Horizons

In earlier posts, we explored solitary and multiple processes, showing how time and space emerge as relational horizons. Now, let us consider a subtler scenario: entangled processes — two or more processes whose changes are immediately linked, so that the state of one is inseparable from the state of the other.

Entanglement as Relational Coherence

Imagine two processes, A and B, in a relational field. Unlike previous examples, a change in A co-determines a change in B, and vice versa. Neither process exists in isolation; each is partially defined by the other.

• There is no independent “before” or “after” for either process — temporal ordering becomes relative and relational.

• Space is also relational: the “position” of each process cannot be defined independently, only in terms of their entangled alignment.

Implications

• Entangled processes demonstrate that coherence can exist across processes without requiring separable identity.

• Horizons such as time and space are flexible and perspectival, emerging from the relational pattern, not pre-existing containers.

• Even with multiple processes, relational entanglement shows that the field itself shapes the possible cuts, constraining and enabling what can be construed.

Looking Ahead

Entangled processes prepare us for the next exploration: the Observer Process, where a process reflects on others. Here, we will see how perspective and measurement are themselves relational acts, revealing the role of construal in creating epistemic horizons.
