MC–SA–IF Framework

The MC–SA–IF framework describes human behavior and cognition as the interaction of three system layers: Mechanical Consciousness (MC), the regulatory processes governing perception, attention, emotion, and action; Somatic Architecture (SA), the structured environments and embodied practices that shape those regulatory states; and Integrated Functioning (IF), a systems analysis framework used to examine how these layers interact, stabilize, and adapt. Together these components form a somatic systems model in which psychological and behavioral phenomena emerge from continuous feedback between nervous system regulation, bodily activity, and environmental structure. This framework provides a structural perspective for studying embodied cognition, somatic regulation, environmental influence on behavior, and the integration of physiological and psychological processes.

“Detailed explanations of the model are available in the Somatic Neuroscience and Psychology sections.”

Author Context
I approach macro systems the way engineers approach physical systems: reduce, map, stress-test, rebuild. This site is a working lab, not a publication campaign. I’m not a think tank. I’m one person who reverse-engineered this from first principles and public data. Judge it on structure, not pedigree.

13 SOMAS Research Program

Psychology-First Experimental Architecture

Core framing

Claim being tested:
Human cognition, regulation, and conscious state can be modeled as a set of recurring functional modules, here organized as 13 SOMAS, each representing a distinct operational pattern linking:

MC = control, selection, initiation
SA = bodily and environmental structuring
IF = functional relation, translation, and system effect

Initial scientific positioning:

A functional classification system for measurable human cognitive-somatic operations.

07. Boundary Filter

SOMA Type: Threshold Gate

Construct
Input-output gating threshold

Operational definition
The functional boundary that regulates what enters awareness, what is blocked, and what is expressed.

Hypothesis
Gating quality predicts distractibility, overstimulation risk, and emotional permeability.

Population
Healthy adults, ADHD traits, sensory-sensitive group

Task / intervention

sensory gating paradigm
competing auditory/visual interference task
deliberate boundary-setting somatic exercise
Measures
P50 or analogous gating marker
distractor susceptibility
subjective overload
behavioral interruption frequency
Predicted result
Poorer gating predicts overload and attentional fragmentation; trained gating improves performance.
Why it matters
Strong bridge to sensory processing, ADHD research, and trauma-related hypervigilance work.

Closing Position

This work is presented without imposition.

No attempt is made to direct belief or influence conclusion.

It is structured as information that can be:

examined
tested
validated
or discarded

based on measurable results.

Standing Position

I stand by the work as presented.

If it holds → it stands on its own
If it fails → it should be rejected

No protection.
No reinterpretation.
No revision to preserve the claim.

Functional Ethic

The responsibility here is not persuasion.

The responsibility is:

clarity of structure
testability of claims
openness to outcome

Validation does not belong to the author.

Take it apart.

If it breaks, good.

If it doesn’t, now you’ve got a problem worth looking at.

Somatics is: (Execution Layer)

The implementation layer of all 13 Somas

Every Soma:

can be observed (behavior)
measured (science)
modeled (systems)
But only becomes usable when it is:
→ physically executed
This is the bridge that takes all 13 Somas
Converts them into repeatable exercises
Provides the diagnose → intervene → measure loop
This is the bridge between:
theory
and real-world application
13 Soma Execution Structure
Each Soma follows:
Detection (diagnose)
Activation (exercise)
Measurement (result)

Soma 07 - Boundary Filter

Detection: overload, distraction, poor filtering
Activation: selective input restriction

Measurement: reduced irrelevant input processing

If:

each Soma can be detected
each Soma can be activated
each Soma produces measurable change

Then:

SN is not theoretical — it is operational

IF is not claiming:

“this is how people should live”

IF is showing:

“this is how the system behaves when adjusted”
