The universe operates as an information-processing substrate that minimizes complexity while maintaining consistency with observations. It refines physical detail dynamically, only as compelled by observation, transforming reality into an emergent phenomenon.
Quantum behavior, dark matter, and dark energy are reinterpreted as efficient computational approximations rather than fundamental entities. Life acts as the ultimate observer, driving the progressive refinement of complexity. Cosmic solitude and the arrow of time naturally emerge as optimization strategies.
The theory predicts "quantum snaps," where new levels of reality crystallize at measurement thresholds, and provides testable insights into how complexity scales with observation. Unifying quantum mechanics, cosmology, and the observer effect under the principle of minimal complexity, this framework fundamentally redefines our understanding of reality.
