🧭 Drift Detection

Drift is not sentiment, engagement, or narrative change alone. It is a vector‑level displacement across the five axes of media physics:

[S, D, A, N, T]

📐 What Drift Measures#

Drift captures changes in:

  • Signal Integrity (S) — rising or falling fidelity
  • Distribution Topology (D) — centralization, fragmentation, or re‑networking
  • Attention Dynamics (A) — volatility, spikes, burnout
  • Narrative Coherence (N) — alignment, conflict, collapse
  • Temporal Cadence (T) — acceleration, compression, slowdown

A system with high drift is structurally unstable, even if its current basin appears stable.

🔢 Computing Drift#

Drift is computed as the difference between two MediaVectors:

Δ = currentVector – previousVector

Magnitude is calculated using Euclidean distance:

magnitude = sqrt(ΔS² + ΔD² + ΔA² + ΔN² + ΔT²)

This magnitude determines the drift category.

🧬 Drift Categories#

The MSM Analyzer classifies drift into four categories:

Micro Drift#

Small, routine adjustments.

  • Low invariant strain
  • No basin pressure
  • Normal narrative or attention fluctuation

Meso Drift#

Meaningful directional movement.

  • One or more invariants rising
  • Early basin tension
  • Narrative wobble or attention irregularity

Macro Drift#

Large structural movement.

  • Multiple invariants strained
  • Basin boundaries approaching
  • Distribution or narrative instability

Regime Shift#

System‑level reconfiguration.

  • Invariants breaking
  • Basin transition imminent or underway
  • Cascade, collapse, or reconstruction conditions

Regime shifts are rare but high‑impact.

🧩 Drift Signatures#

Different axes produce different drift signatures:

  • High ΔA + High ΔT → cascade or burnout
  • High ΔN + Low ΔS → narrative collapse
  • High ΔD + High ΔN → fragmentation
  • High ΔS + High ΔN → reconstruction
  • High ΔT + Low ΔS → epistemic decay

These signatures help interpret why drift is occurring.

🌀 Drift and Basins#

Drift determines whether the system is:

  • Settling deeper into its current basin
  • Moving toward a neighboring basin
  • Escaping its attractor entirely
  • Crossing into cascade or collapse
  • Climbing into reconstruction

Basin classification tells you where the system is.
Drift tells you where it’s going.

🎛 Drift and Modes#

Modes are strongly influenced by drift magnitude:

  • Stable → micro drift
  • Tension → micro or meso drift
  • Drift → meso or macro drift
  • Cascade → macro drift
  • Collapse → macro or regime shift
  • Reconstruction → meso drift with rising S and N

Drift is the primary driver of mode transitions.

🔄 Drift and Transitions#

Transitions occur when drift crosses structural thresholds:

  • Basin → Basin
  • Mode → Mode
  • Stable → Tension → Drift → Cascade → Collapse → Reconstruction

The Analyzer uses drift magnitude and direction to determine:

  • Trigger type
  • Severity
  • Trajectory
  • Expected next basin or mode

Drift is the earliest and most reliable indicator of systemic change.

📦 Output: MediaDrift#

The Analyzer returns:

{
  delta: MediaVector,
  magnitude: number,
  category: "micro" | "meso" | "macro" | "regime_shift"
}

This output feeds directly into transition detection and longitudinal analysis.
