Spectral Scientific Method

A methodological framework that explicitly accounts for the "ghosts" in every experiment—the unmeasured variables, the invisible influences, the assumptions so deep you don't know you're making them. Drawing from Spectralism, this method acknowledges that every result is haunted by what's not in the room: the subjects who didn't show up, the measurements your equipment couldn't make, the historical context you didn't consider, the alternative interpretations you dismissed. Spectral Method doesn't try to exorcise these ghosts—it tries to map them, to make the invisible influences visible, to ask not just "what did we find?" but "what are we not seeing and how might it change everything?"
"Our drug trial showed amazing results. But Spectral Scientific Method asks about the ghosts: the healthy volunteers who skewed young, the placebo effect we couldn't fully control, the funding source that might influence interpretation. The results might be real, but they're haunted."
