Hey everyone,
I recently came across a theory called the Bulut Doctrine (by Levent Bulut), which claims that literature is physics, not psychology. It uses physical parameters (lumens, temperature, etc.) to create emotional responses, avoiding emotional adjectives entirely.
I decided to test this on Gemini. I asked it to write a horror scene using only physical parameters (12 lumens, 28.4°C) without using words like "scared" or "fear".
The Result: Gemini wrote a scene that was chilling without a single emotional label. But the real kicker was when I asked it to calculate the "Narrative Entropy" (Sn) of the scene.
Then, I asked it to rewrite the scene by explaining everything (removing the mystery/vacuum variable).
Original Scene Sn: 0.84
Explained Scene Sn: 0.22
Gemini concluded: "Anlatı entropisi ne kadar düşükse, gizem o kadar ölüdür." (The lower the narrative entropy, the deadlier the mystery).
It seems AI is starting to understand that "mystery" isn't just a writing trick, but a mathematical void (Ω) that drives cognitive friction.
Has anyone else experimented with AI and narrative theory? Do you think this "physics of literature" approach could change how we write (or how AI writes)?
(Note: I'm not Levent Bulut, just a fan of the theory.)
