This document presents an original conceptual theoretical framework first articulated in late 2025. It formalizes the emergence of time, gravity, and quantum coherence from a single postulate: our universe is a structured event within a background scalar medium (the Timeless Sea). This version (v6) corrects earlier conceptual conflation and introduces significant formal developments: • Tensorial Stress-Emergence: Bridges scalar pressure to the Einstein Field Equations via a coarse-grained stress tensor ΠTSC_μν. • Black Hole Thermodynamics: Maps horizon entropy and Hawking radiation to TSC contact dynamics. • Friedmann Recovery: Derives cosmological expansion and the equation of state w (z) from residual TSC pressure. • Lorentz Invariance: Recovers standard relativistic field theory as an infrared fixed point. • Open Quantum System Formalism: Separates environmental and timeline decoherence channels using the GKSL equation. The framework makes specific, falsifiable predictions, with the primary test involving qubit coherence scaling with gravitational isolation (prediction: 250× improvement at Sun-Earth L2; falsification: <50×).
