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.

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.
