This preprint presents the first paper in the Kosmocosm Framework, a unified geometric and discrete-temporal model of cosmology developed to address persistent tensions in contemporary observational data, most notably the Hubble tension and the inferred need for Dark Energy. The framework proposes that the observable Universe is the three-dimensional surface of a finite, positively curved four-dimensional structure (the Quantasphere). In this geometry, photons propagate tangentially along an expanding shell while remaining confined from the interior bulk. When observational data arising from this curved-shell geometry are interpreted using flat-space assumptions, systematic projection effects arise in distance inference, expansion-rate estimation, and acceleration diagnostics. Within the Kosmocosm, apparent cosmic acceleration is shown to be a geometric artifact rather than the result of a physical Dark Energy component. The discrepancy between early- and late-Universe measurements of the Hubble constant arises naturally from mismatched inference frameworks applied to different observational regimes. Temporal evolution in the model proceeds through an autonomous mechanical cycle in which continuous shell inertia is opposed by a purely radial gravitational influence originating in the bulk. Accumulated tension periodically undergoes Objective Reduction, imprinting discrete holographic records of the Universe into the interior while preserving continuous relativistic dynamics on the shell. Standard General Relativity governs all tangential physics, while an additional extrinsic gravitational sector operates solely in the radial dimension. The framework is explicitly falsifiable. The paper outlines observational and experimental conditions under which the model would fail, including global spatial flatness, absence of lensing anomalies, violation of Lorentz or isotropy symmetry attributable to radial dynamics, and the absence of any minimum physical update interval. This work is intended as a foundational paper. Subsequent papers in the Kosmocosm series extend the framework to quantum foundations, biological systems, and the nature of conscious experience.
