Contemporary physics treats space, time, mass, energy, and fields as fundamental primitives.This work argues that none of these concepts are required at the foundational level. We introducea pre-geometric kernel framework in which all standard physical primitives are replaced by a singlescalar structure together with a precise notion of representational interface. The kernel containsno dynamics, no causal ordering, no geometry, and no dimensional quantities. Physical conceptsarise only through coarse-graining and interface-dependent representation. This paper does notreconstruct any specific physical theory; instead, it establishes the minimal structural conditionsunder which such reconstructions are possible. The result is a clear separation between kernelinvariants and interface artifacts, providing a rigorous foundation for subsequent derivations ofclassical, relativistic, and quantum physics without assuming their customary primitives.
