8i — Physics-Mathematics Substrate
8i is an experimental research project exploring a physics-mathematics route to machine cognition, distinct from the usual computer-science route toward AGI.
This repository contains the current state of the work: a desktop Python organism prototype and a PlayStation 2-oriented C++/homebrew design sketch. The system uses symbolic DNA-style codecs, balanced ternary state, E8-inspired 248-dimensional internal geometry, repository ingestion, metabolic timing, and reversible compressed state packets.
This is not presented as AGI. It is a working conceptual substrate, codebase, and invitation.
Request to the community
This is how far I can take this alone.
If you thank me, thank Dr. Antony Garrett Lisi (8D) & Dr. Марина Сергіївна Вязовська (24В).
If you are a mathematician, physicist, emulator developer, PS2 homebrew developer, symbolic AI researcher, compression researcher, or cognitive architecture engineer, please continue the work.
The goal is to explore a physics-mathematics version of machine intelligence — 8i — rather than simply another computer-science implementation of AGI.

Commercial support
This project is part of the broader HORRENDOUS CONTENDERS technical manual programme by AllAlong&AfterAll / FORT RANDA SECURITECONSULTER.
As a thank you for public continuation, review, testing, or serious contribution, you may support the work by preordering the technical manuals here:

The manuals concern a new V/STOL technical platform and are separate commercial documentation products. The 8i code in this repository is experimental research code.
Status
Prototype / research release.
The desktop code is closer to runnable. The PS2 version is currently a high-concept homebrew port and requires toolchain, SDK, memory, and compile corrections before it should be treated as buildable.
Continuation request
Please fork this repository, open issues, propose mathematical corrections, simplify the architecture, port the PS2 build into a reproducible toolchain, and help determine whether this symbolic physics-mathematics substrate can become a rigorous computable system.
Safety and execution note
Do not run the desktop script on a private working directory without reviewing its filesystem, network, voice, and background-loop behaviour. Start by reading SECURITY.md and DISCLAIMER.md.
