  "abstract": "Large information systems are typically navigated by names, search results, folders, timelines, and lists. These are effective but force every return to begin as a query or a reconstruction of hierarchy. Human beings also remember by place, neighborhood, landmark, scale, and relative position. FOVEA proposes a deterministic address fabric that gives digital objects stable place, procedurally generated navigational identity, and attention-proportional retrieval without turning the spatial projection into the source of truth. FOVEA uses an exact dyadic quadkey lattice, Hilbert linearization for locality-preserving storage and traversal, receipt-bound placement, deterministic landmarks, a single LOOK observation primitive, and concentric retrieval budgets around an active reticle. Canonical state remains in LCSM. Encoded object representation remains in fold/2. FOVEA owns placement, address mathematics, locality, navigation, and bounded retrieval. The strongest current claim is infrastructural: the supplied address implementation and proof deck establish coherent exact addressing, traversal, reconstruction, and corruption-handling mechanisms. The central cognitive claim—that procedural landmarks make a recursive information field more memorable and useful than an ordinary grid or competent search interface—remains deliberately falsifiable through named kill criteria.",
