Covolution

Covolution is the principle by which informationally encapsulated switching networks propagate, refine, and accumulate switching density through the structured exploration of para-determined possibility-spaces.


The result is a directional accumulation of switching density that distinguishes covolution from ordinary evolutionary drift, in which information accumulation is not guaranteed.

Computation in this definition refers to the system's maintenance of a predictive model of its symvironment and its action on that model to maintain operational closure, in the technical sense developed by the free energy and active inference literatures, not to literal consciousness or premeditation.


Covolution is derived from computed co-evolution. 

Covolution definition by Jong Bhak

Covolution is the propagation principle and mechanism of information entities (objects) that compute and predict their future directions in para-determined mathematical pathways/architecture of the universe.   

It is the exploration of information space by premeditated and precomputed actions. 

Covolution explores the energy and information landscape not blindly but systematically through computation. The computation here does not mean man-made computers. It means some mathematical and physical architecture.

For example, mutations occurring in a human genome is not random from the first place but under some equilibrium system. Also, the non-random randomness is also directed by the entity that generates, such as a genome, cell, tissue, or an organism.

Variation and selection are not random but can best be described as 'computed' or even 'conscious' (nformationally directed).

Covolution results in the condensation of information, while evolution does not necessarily does so.
