OROBORIS proposes that coherent organization in complex systems emerges only when Stability, Recursive Closure, and Internal Generativity are jointly present. Explore 60 systems across three structural dimensions.

About OROBORIS
OROBORIS is a structural framework for analyzing coherent informational organization in complex systems. The model defines six primary dimensions (B, I, Rᶜ, D, Σ, A) and three derived metrics (Ω, Ca, G) to characterize systems from physical to cognitive.
Dimensions
Ω — Structural coherence index
Ca — Autocentrality of alignment
G — Internal Generativity (v4.1)
Point size encodes G — the degree to which a system generates its own organization.
