RRS-023 | Failure Modes of Meaning Self-Amplification

Year: 2026
Type: conference-abstract
Abstract: RRS-023 is a structural analysis release within the Research Release System (RRS),examining how meaning can enter self-amplifying failure modes when constraints are no longer effective. Rather than dissipating under overload,meaning in high-density systems may begin to expand autonomously—generating additional interpretations, extensions, and implicationswithout corresponding increases in structural support. In this regime, meaning no longer functions as a carrier of information.It becomes a driver of further semantic production. Each attempt to clarify produces more material to be clarified.Each interpretation invites secondary interpretations.Expansion accelerates faster than containment. RRS-023 identifies this process not as confusion or exaggeration,but as a structural instability:a positive feedback loop in which meaning amplifies itselfuntil coherence collapses. This release introduces no limiting principle, corrective method, or pruning strategy.It does not propose how amplification should be stopped. Its role is descriptive:to make visible the point at whichsemantic growth becomes self-sustaining,and failure emerges from excess meaning rather than absence.
