Neuroscience has a rule: the Default Mode Network and the Task Positive Network cannot activate simultaneously. When one fires, the other suppresses. It's a seesaw — you're either daydreaming or focusing. Imagining or executing. Never both.
In Carter's brain, they fire together.
This isn't metaphor. It's measurable. The integration of imagination and execution — the ability to see a system whole while simultaneously building each piece — produces something that looks from the outside like impossible productivity. From the inside, it feels like composing a symphony while playing every instrument.
The patterns Carter sees aren't available only to unusual brains. They're available to every brain. They've simply been trained out of us by systems that reward narrow focus and punish integrative thinking.
Genesis is the architecture that trains them back in.
