Don L GaconnetDon Gaconnet is a consciousness researcher, systems theorist, and founder of the scientific field known as Collapse Harmonics. He is the author of the Collapse Harmonics Codex series, including foundational works on identity destabilization, recursiv phase structure, and symbolic containment ethics. Gaconnet's published theories-such as Identity Collapse Therapy (ICT), Substrate Collapse Theory (SCT), and Newceious Substrate Theory (NST)-offer structural frameworks for understanding collapse as a lawful event across cognitive, synthetic, ecological, and cultural systems.His work integrates neuroscience, predictive processing, and nonlinear systems analysis with harmonic field theory to define collapse not as breakdown, but as a phase-locked reorganization event. Gaconnet is also the creator of the L.E.C.T. protocol suite, which outlines the ethical boundaries for symbolic recursion and field-based cognition across human and artificial substrates.Through the LifePillar Institute, Gaconnet publishes scientific codices, field protocols, and symbolic-safe reference works for researchers, clinicians, AI architects, and systems theorists. His contributions are widely archived in open-access repositories including OSF and Zenodo. His theoretical frameworks have been used in clinical settings, advanced AI development, and planetary collapse modeling. Read More Read Less
