Language as Packaging offers a radical re-foundation of linguistic theory by replacing symbolic primitives with a geometric ontology grounded in closure, curvature, and confinement. Instead of morphemes, lexemes, features, or constructions, the basic unit of language becomes the EXEME - the first closure-stable well with a Head-Tail architecture, measurable mass, curvature, Tail complexity, entropy, and permeability. From this starting point, the book develops a unified morphodynamic program in which TERM, PAS/SPO, SSS, TEXT, METATEXT, and MIND are not distinct modules but successive installations of the same well-type under the no-jump law. The monograph reframes language as a packaging interface: tokens, strings, and constructions are not the ontology of linguistic structure but the external carriers through which internal wells circulate without altering their identity. A stratified rule architecture distinguishes well-laws, packaging laws, and labeling conventions, dissolving long-standing category instability and explaining drift, repair, and cross-linguistic diversity as natural consequences of Tail geometry and permeability regimes. Drawing on psycholinguistic signatures, computational simulations, and cross-linguistic evidence, Language as Packaging demonstrates how EXEMEs emerge, how higher installations stabilize, and why linguistic behavior reflects morphodynamic constraints rather than symbolic rules. The result is a coherent, testable, and computationally realizable framework that unifies ontology, rule stratification, and empirical prediction. For linguists, cognitive scientists, modelers, and philosophers of language, this book offers a new foundation: language not as a symbolic code, but as the circulation of closure-stable wells through a finite-permeability interface.
