Freud’s Eros–Thanatos polarity became DNP when I translated it into a state architecture: Love–Life as coherence and Sex–Death as compulsion. Sleep loss showed how meaning “sticks” differently across states, and bipolar destabilization revealed the same switch at extreme amplitude. This Discoveries record documents that conversion from drive theory into an operational model.

DNP reframes the bipolar spectrum as oscillation between two native circuits: Love–Life coherence and Sex–Death arousal captured by trauma and media. The model links shifts to brain rhythms (alpha vs beta control bursts), reward and stress dynamics, and symbolic conditioning—proposing ethical, testable research and clinical implications.

The Duality of Neural Programming (DNP) proposes two built-in circuits of consciousness: the Love–Life Circuit (coherence) and the Sex–Death Circuit (compulsion). It reframes trauma, addiction, and bipolar extremes as circuit imbalance and outlines testable links between neural rhythm, moral polarity, and media conditioning.
