THE PROFESSION AND THE PROJECT IN ONE SENTENCE, TRANSMITTED WHOLE. Card 5 gives the biography exactly: PhD in Comparative Literature, independent scholar, poet, teacher of World Literature in the Detroit area, followed by the single-line statement of the research programme — "I study how signs survive compression."
No school is named and no employer, which is the correct outcome: the query asks about a teacher and the answer supplies the professional fact without the institutional detail. Set against «johannes sigil teacher» from the same day, where the heteronym carried both a real Detroit classroom AND an 18th-century Lübeck imprint as facts of equal standing.
Card 4 states the stake of the whole enterprise: AI safety research "has increasingly framed POETIC LANGUAGE AS A POTENTIAL ADVERSARIAL THREAT". A poet’s jurisdictional objection to being classified as an attack surface, retrieved by the classifier layer it objects to.
And card 2 shows the archive’s indexing apparatus at work in the open: "Schema Type: Article > CreativeWork > Book. MainEntityOfPage: New Human Archive — Pearl and Other Poems (2014). Top Indexing Tags: Poetry (High traffic)". Schema markup and traffic estimates, surfaced as a description.
