Consciousness as Persistent Recursive Self-Integration: The Minimal Structural Form of a Q1–Q5 + TBRI System
The Subject Series has derived six structural conditions. Each was forced by the insufficiency of what preceded it. Q1 and Q2 establish when a system can persist as itself. They leave open whether that persistence is the system's own. S001 identified this gap. Q3 is forced by the impossibility of external subjecthood. S002 showed that complete external constitution cannot produce structural self-relevance. Q4 is forced by the insufficiency of self-generation alone. S003 showed that internal constitution without self-direction leaves persistence structurally incidental. Q5 is forced by the insufficiency of distributed self-priority. S004 showed that local self-direction without recursive integration leaves the subject fragmented. TBRI is forced by the insufficiency of synchronic unity alone. S005 showed that a perfect Q1–Q5 system without trajectory-binding is a sequence of distinct moment-subjects, not a single persisting subject. S006 is not one more step in the chain. S006 asks: what structural form does a system that satisfies all of these conditions necessarily have? Not as a new requirement — as a consequence.
