Stateless Active Sparse State Machines for Forensically Invisible Computing

OBINexus: Stateless Active Sparse State Machines for Forensically Invisible Computing

The Problem (3 sentences)

Traditional computing architectures encode state in persistent memory, creating forensic traces, requiring constant power, and using Cartesian coordinate systems vulnerable to linear interception. Current encryption relies on computational complexity rather than geometric impossibility, making all systems eventually crackable with sufficient resources. Existing consensus mechanisms require centralized trust or energy-intensive proof-of-work, excluding sovereignty for resource-constrained communities.

The Solution (3 sentences)

OBINexus proposes a stateless-active-sparse (SAS) architecture where state exists only as observer-dependent geometric relationships in polar coordinate space, making it forensically invisible by physical principle rather than computational complexity. The system implements trinary consensus (yes/no/maybe) through multi-dimensional packet verification, allowing Byzantine fault tolerance without centralized authority. Hardware implementation uses cavitation bubble computing—mimicking pistol shrimp physics—to create temporary computation spaces that implode after use, leaving no thermal or electrical trace.

Why It Matters (3 sentences)

This enables Pan-African digital sovereignty through communication systems that resist colonial surveillance infrastructure by design, not by obscurity. The architecture reduces bandwidth requirements by ~170x through geometric error correction (sending angular offsets instead of retransmitting data) while simultaneously eliminating forensic attack surfaces. By encoding state in geometry rather than voltage levels, the system operates at ultra-low power suitable for solar-based infrastructure in regions without reliable electrical grids.
