Event
The only source of reality.
Not a command. Not a message. A record that reality is changing.

What It Is
Event is the only truth from which all phenomena arise. It is not a command, not a message, not a state transition.
An Event is a record that reality is changing. It does not interpret reality — it records it.
In Glide, nothing exists outside the Event Stream. State is only an interpretation, never an entity.

Event in Glide Ontology
In Glide, Event is the singular occurrence that emerges from Relation.
Field → openness
Observation → a disturbance within the Field
Relation → structure emerging from the disturbance
Event → a singular occurrence within Relation
Projection → the world as it appears through Relation
Event is not a thing that happens. It is the happening itself — the moment when possibility becomes actual within the Field.
The event is singular. The world is its projection.
