Abolishing the Last Ontological Illusion_The Systemic Continuum Paradigm and the End of Artificiality

Since Ludwig von Bertalanffy's (1968) inception of General System Theory, there has been a longstanding aspiration to achieve a unifying framework for understanding the organization of living, technological, and social systems. However, one historical obstacle has been the assumption that “natural” and “artificial” belong to separate ontological realms.This manuscript introduces the Systemic Continuum Paradigm (SCP), a perspective positing that every form of organization — biological, technological, social, and even physical — belongs to one evolving continuum of emergent self-organization. Rather than viewing human systems as external to "nature", the SCP reframes the natural/artificial dichotomy as an anthropocentric bias.The proposal includes empirical comparisons (e.g., coral reefs vs. urban systems), introduces four experimental metrics (ICS, CNS, MDO, SDI), and suggests that phenomena like gravity and dark energy may emerge from synergy thresholds. By integrating philosophy of science, systems theory, cybernetics, and complexity science, the SCP offers a meta-framework for reinterpreting ontological categories in light of emergent organization.
