A question is not the absence of knowledge, It is the presence of energy

Tisler introduces a novel framework for understanding inquiry, proposing that questions are not mere tools but energetic particles within a dynamic cognitive field. This "field epistemology" utilizes Quantum Storytelling Notation (QSN) and Holistic Data Transformation (HDT²) to formalize how questions, driven by intent (Ω), interact with semantic entropy (Δ), leading to collapse (Φ), which is a structural change rather than a simple answer. The model emphasizes that inquiry is not free, costing cognitive energy and leaving residual traces (τ) that shape future thought, effectively creating a thermodynamics of meaning where understanding flows and the field itself "thinks." Ultimately, the text argues that cognition is a recursive, evolving field of questions, where the act of asking fundamentally transforms both the questioner and the known.
