contents <p>Positioning cognitive science as the systematic study of intra-action and cognitive art as its reflexive twin, this paper traces a bidirectional trajectory toward systemic wholeness. Procedural craft (firstness) and conceptual articulation (secondness) co-evolve into adaptive intelligence (thirdness), as continuously audited by the observing niche that embeds, measures, and reinterprets those intelligences (fourthness). This four-fold schema maps onto concrete information architectures: from insect bodies, to cryptographically verifiable plain texts, on through variational Bayesian simulations approached from the Low Road of Active Inference. Alternating 2→3 analytical moves which compress past data into predictive structure, with 4→3 generative moves which open space for unknown futures – these systems are capable of balancing exploitation with exploration, measurement with meaning, and optimization with open-ended creativity. True cognitive wholeness emerges when explanation and anticipation co-operate in sustained dialogue across scales.</p>
