You are the observer.
You are a [[System]].
You exist in the [[Present]].
You exist in a [[Location]].
You can [[Internal Processing|Process]] [[Information]] through [[Translation]].
Which consists of [[Sensing]], [[Relating]], and [[Memory]].
To [[Existence|Exist]], you must [[Internal Processing|Process]]; to process, you must use [[Energy]]; using energy creates entropy; and entropy creates the flow of [[Proper Time]].
Every [[System]] is its own Reference Frame. A [[System]]'s persistence depends on its own internal $\sigma$ (the [[Information|resolution]] required to maintain its [[Relating|relational]] structure). An external observer's $\sigma$ for that [[System]] is independent and determines only the observer's cost.

## [[Relational Resolution Theory (RRT)|RRT Formalization]]
**Logic:** [[You]] are the Reference Frame that determines $\sigma$ ([[Information|Resolution]]).
**Constraint:** To [[Existence|Exist]], [[You]] must maintain $\Phi_{\epsilon} \geq \Phi_{\min}$ through [[Internal Processing|Processing]].

## In the Equation
**"The Reference Frame"**
[[You]] are the origin of the equation. You select the [[Information|resolution]] ($\sigma$) and which [[Relating|Relations]] to maintain. The [[Format]] determines the local cost ($T$, $\tau$) and the structure determines the [[Relational Distance|distance]] ($d$).
