About the Author
E. A. Harper is an independent philosopher based in Tauranga, New Zealand. His work focuses on the structural conditions of intelligibility, performative primitives, and the organisational forms presupposed by logic, mathematics, physics, mind, and modelling.
The Primitive of Intelligibility is his principal systematic reconstruction. It develops a modal-constructive account of distinction, stability, polarity, dual-aspect identity, and closure, while remaining explicit about residual freedom and the limits of the method.
Ongoing work includes modular papers that isolate and extend individual components of the architecture.
He welcomes serious engagement with the ideas developed in this project and shared on the website.
