Explosive Compression via Gödel-Style Encoding

This project explores experimental approaches to compression based on the idea that compact symbolic descriptions can expand into very large outputs. Inspired by Gödel-style encodings and mathematical explosion operators, it investigates how minimal equations can be used to reconstruct complex binary data with only small amounts of additional padding.

Rather than focusing on conventional compression techniques, the work studies the relationship between description length and output size. An analysis phase searches for combinations of functions that expand predictably into structures resembling the target data, measuring the difference between the compact description and the resulting binary form.

This research is exploratory by nature. It’s less concerned with immediate practicality and more focused on understanding the limits of representation, compression, and symbolic expansion — and where computation can be used to bridge the gap between simplicity and scale.
