The model grows through recognition

The I·V·O model describes consciousness as a field phenomenon. That sounds abstract — but the dynamics it describes are very recognisable: the moment something 'clicks', the atmosphere that shifts in a conversation, the direction that presents itself naturally.

Phenomenological validation means that multiple people, independently of each other, recognise the same field dynamics. Not through numbers, but through description. The more people document their experiences, the stronger the pattern becomes visible.

Three ways to participate

From individual experience to pattern

Submitted experiences are carefully read. I look for recognisable patterns: situations where I, V or O move in similar ways.

When multiple people describe the same dynamics — without knowing each other's stories — phenomenological validation emerges. This is not proof in the scientific sense, but it makes visible that the model describes something others also perceive.

Contributions included in the research are always anonymised, unless you explicitly give permission for attribution.

Towards a shared field

The I·V·O model is still at the beginning. But the idea is that a community emerges of people who recognise this perspective and work with it — in their own life, work or research.

What that will look like I don't know exactly yet. Perhaps a mailing list, perhaps a forum, perhaps just loose exchanges. The field itself will show what fits.

For now, the simplest way to participate is: document your experience and share it via the contact form. Every story counts.
