Reveals the transformation of human experience in the digital age, suggesting the need for a 'Right to be Uncomputable.'
This study problematizes the transition from classical humanist ontology to a new macro-ontological regime of the digital age: Computable-Being. To conceptualize and formalize the transformation of computation from an instrument of reality representation into a strict ontological filter, the paper employs the apparatus of category theory and algorithmic information theory. Within this model, the phenomenological experience of a subject that resists translation into machine code is systematically marginalized and equated with the empty set. Seeking to maintain access to the lifeworld, subjects are forced to engage in Coerced Computability—algorithmically reducing their own existential complexity. The response to this threat is the conceptualization of the "Right to be Uncomputable" as a fundamental requirement for preserving social entropy.
