Description

Morphonomics: The Law of Form examines how change of shape—whether in words, bodies, or systems—is governed by lawful arrangement. From morphē (Greek: “form, shape, structure”) and nomos (Greek: “law, order, arrangement”), Morphonomics shows that transformations are never arbitrary but always anchored in language. Graphemes embody visible form, phonemes animate them as sound, and morphemes reshape meaning through prefixes, roots, and suffixes.

This work demonstrates how orthography secures coherence across shifts of usage, how lexemes preserve stability of roots, and how words crystallize into enduring categories. Multiplicity of form—pluralization, conjugation, derivation, variation—is unified by etymology, which preserves continuity. Applications span linguistics, biology, art, architecture, and technology: from the lawful shaping of words, to the morphology of organisms, to the design of buildings, to the formatting of code. Recursion defines Morphonomics: letters spell graphemes, graphemes spell morphemes, morphemes spell words, and words spell systems of form. It reveals that every transformation is lawful, every shape written into order.
