Architectures of Perception: Panqubism and Art as Field Disclosure

What if a painting is not an object to judge but an interface where a field becomes visible? Architectures of Perception, Panspatial Art: foundations of Panqubism and field genesis. 📚 Coherence collection on Zenodo: https://zenodo.org/communities/coherence Philip Lilien · UCTE Foundation Art theory usually judges work by historical context or visual effect. Panqubism treats the canvas as a local projection interface through which a source field is translated without losing structural intensity. Lines and volumes act as operators within a rigorous syntax, and the eight-phase Pan-spatial Translation Method (PTM) guides depth generation. Works are judged by how faithfully they translate the field, rejecting both arbitrary noise and decorative nihilism. Art is not decoration. It is the disclosure of a field.
