No Way Out Polynon Theory: Tib Roibu on Cognitive Gravity & Boyd's OODA Loop
Nov 12, 2025
Join Romanian researcher Tib Roibu, the mind behind Polynon Theory, as he delves into the geometric framework of cognition. Tib explores how thought shapes our perceptions and decisions, framing consciousness as a structural entity. Discover the concept of cognitive gravity and its impact on attention pathways, drawing connections to John Boyd's OODA Loop. He also ties geometry to meditative practices and psychedelic experiences, suggesting new paradigms for understanding consciousness and our decision-making processes.

Episode notes
Geometry As Cognition
- Geometry is not just a representation tool but the structure of cognition itself.
- Tib Roibu proposes an equivalence: geometry is cognition, and mental content maps to geometric forms.
Non-Dual Monism Foundation
- Polynon adopts non-dual monism: consciousness is fundamental but mind and body are not separate.
- The theory embraces paradox, treating both idealist and materialist findings as complementary facets.
Vertices As Pure Consciousness
- Polynon models consciousness as a continuum that we discretize into vertices and edges.
- Each vertex represents pure consciousness (a non-event) while edges are the measurable holographic unfoldings.
