This work introduces a paradox rooted in a minimalist, constructive variation of Zeno’s classical motion problem. We define a stepwise process where each natural number is projected into the interval [ 0, 1 ) [0,1), while all previous numbers are proportionally compressed toward zero. Each finite stage is computable and well-behaved: it gains new territory in the interval and defines convergent sequences for each projected position. However, in the limit, all constructed values collapse into an arbitrarily small neighborhood near zero. Despite progressively filling the interval, none of the projected numbers remain in the occupied space. The result is a paradoxical system: one that expands indefinitely while its contents vanish. This contradiction is not topological but constructive — it arises from finitely verifiable steps and exposes a gap between local consistency and global behavior. We show that the limit object (the "Projected Infinite") behaves like a reified universal quantifier. When treated as an algebraic element within the system, it leads to contradictions analogous to Russell’s set, Gödel’s sentence, and Turing’s halting trap. The paradox thus reveals that even in purely constructive systems, attempts to internalize infinity or totality result in structural breakdowns — not because of classical assumptions, but because of the logic of generality itself.
