Error Pressure

show accumulated instability without harsh alert patterns

Running the actual pattern live via applyPattern() — switch the substrate, stack overlays, watch the signals, or reverse the dynamics. Not a mock.

"Error Pressure" — show accumulated instability without harsh alert patterns. It has a thermal layer (agitate matter at a temperature), a pressure layer (relax crowding (incompressibility)), a morph layer (assemble matter into a mark/shape (never words, §11)), a memory layer (a decaying trail / hysteresis), and a diffuse layer (spread a quantity over the medium). The active render stack is heatmap, metaballs, particles.

Errors add thermal heat and entropy that accumulate as pressure; resolved ones cool and, like a weak decay, morph into history instead of flashing an alarm.
