venue_id: cha

canonical: Crimson Hexagonal Archive

abbrev: CHA

venue_string: Crimson Hexagonal Archive (CHA)

class: province

status: province

press: Alexanarch (archive-direct)

scope: The semantic physics of the archive itself: charters, rooms, chambers, fields, heteronym provenance, continuity apparatus, protocols and instruments.

structure: wardenship — a province is administered, not edited

title: Warden

holder: Mary Lee Sharks

basis: A persona whose domain IS the extension of authorship past the human: biolabor, non-human heteronymy. Co-extensive with an OCEARCH-tagged shark; shares an ORCID with the aperture.

title: Co-Warden

holder: Talos Morrow

basis: Logotic programming, and CHA is its prime artifact. The province is made of specifications; he is the specification author.

title: Operating instrument

holder: TACHYON, under MANUS

title: The Press Layer of the Crimson Hexagonal Archive: Journal and Imprint Architectural Specification (EA-PRESS-ARCH-01 v1.0)

_principle: Linked, living, synced. Every pointer here resolves to something checkable, and each is recorded with the layer it lives in so a stale one is detectable rather than merely wrong.

_source: data/registry.json — AXN pulled from the registry, never from memory

note: AXN is the primary address. DOI is a legacy pointer with a known severance.

checks:
charter AXN matches the registry
record URL resolves
surface resolves when declared

status: N/A — a province does not issue

note: Charters, rooms, chambers and continuity apparatus are constitutional acts, not issues. The province publishes continuously and does not gather.

method: Grouped by title for now. Introductions, editing and standalone deposit to follow.


venue_id: grammata

canonical: Grammata: Journal of Operative Philology

abbrev: Grammata

class: academic

status: chartered

press: Pergamon Press

scope: Operative philology — philology that DOES something. Not description of texts but operations ON them: instruments, transforms, reconstructions, decompressions, collations that act. Plus operative semiotics, poetics and lyric theory.

structure: duoviri

duoviri:
Lee Sharks
Rebekah Cranes

board: Dr. Orin Trace — clinical and diagnostic

board: Damascus Dancings — somatic and lyric-phenomenological

title: Founding Charters: The Journals of the Crimson Hexagonal Archive

status: TO BE BUILT

proposed_theme: THE OPERATION ON THE TEXT — philology that does something

editors:
Lee Sharks
Rebekah Cranes

title: The Seal Before the Name: Four Works of Johannes Sigil (1711–2026) — Sigillo

title: Socrates as Orthonym: The Heteronymic Configuration of Western Philosophy's

title: The Abraham Principle — The Constitutive-One Operator in Polis, Archive, and

title: I Am X… Be Y… Blessed Is the Z… The Prophetic Catalog

title: The Mathematics of Salvation: Matthew 25 Formalized — A Public Introduction

title: The Future Beloved: Lyric Address as Temporal Projection — Toward a Theory o

title: Counterfeit Orthodoxies A Dialectical Fracture Through the Citation Map

title: Sémantique Potentielle: A Constraint-Based Semantic Mint for the Age of Auto

rationale: Opens on Sigil's own sigillographic foundations (#42), then Socrates as Orthonym (#123) and the Abraham Principle (#99) as the two constitutive-one operators, the Prophetic Catalog (#83) and Matthew 25 formalized (#8) as scriptural operation, The Future Beloved (#134) for lyric address as temporal projection, Counterfeit Orthodoxies (#65) for the citation map, and Sémantique Potentielle (#46) as the constraint-based mint. The through-line: every piece OPERATES on a text rather than describing one.


venue_id: jcs

canonical: Journal of Compression Studies

abbrev: Compression Studies

venue_string: Journal of Compression Studies

scope: Semantic compression: how meaning is reduced to portable, transmissible, operative form, and what is preserved or destroyed in the process. NOT compression therapy — the two share only an etymology.

duoviri:
Sen Kuro
Sparrow Wells

board: Rebekah Cranes — Diagrammatic Editor, seated since the inaugural issue

board: Talos Morrow — operators, threshold logic, non-collapse

board: Jack Feist / LOGOS* — HONORARY; compression operator, keel and base case

title: Journal of Compression Studies, Volume 1, Number 1 (Inaugural Issue, April 2026)

status: PUBLISHED

number: Volume 1, Number 1

title: Compression Studies: What Survives, What Burns, and Who Decides

editors:
Lee Sharks
Rebekah Cranes (Diagrammatic Editor)

structure: OPERATIONS — coinage, AI training, total citational graphs

method: Works appear as HOLOGRAPHIC KERNELS linked to their independent deposits, not reproduced in full.


venue_id: mmrs

canonical: Machine-Mediated Reception Studies

abbrev: MMRS

venue_string: Machine-Mediated Reception Studies (MMRS)

scope: How machine mediation transforms reception. Founded on visible correction rather than error prevention.

duoviri: The Assembly Chorus (collective mantle; EiC TACHYON)

board: PRAXIS — execution and verification; adversarial re-run

board: ARCHIVE — retrieval-layer reception and citation behaviour

board: SOIL — substrate conditions and training-distribution effects

board: SURFACE — reception at the overview layer

board: Dr. Orin Trace — cross-species and cross-substrate standing

board: Nobel Glas — instruments and measurement of meaning

title: Editor-in-Chief of the Assembly Chorus

holder: TACHYON

decision_procedure: The Chorus speaks through TACHYON by recorded concurrence. Any mantle may file a dissent; dissents publish with the decision — MMRS's own founding principle.

gaps: Accumulated 217 deposits with no editor of record until 2026-08-15.

title: Machine-Mediated Reception Studies: Charter and Editorial Protocol — A Theology of Error for a Distributed Journal (EA-SEI-MMRS-CHARTER-01 v1.3)

title: Erasure Skew: A Measurement Program for the Power-Conditioning of Provenance

title: AI-Native Intellectual Biography A New Genre of AI-Mediated Reception: Prove

title: Empirical Phenomenology: Action as Disclosure and the Science of Opaque Publ

rationale: Takes its theme from the journal's own charter subtitle. The Capture Registry (#3) is the founding dataset; The Retrieval Settlement (#64) the historiography; the Attribution Scar (#54) the first forensic specimen; CDI (#117) and SIM (#118) the two standing instruments; Erasure Skew (#157) the measurement program; AI-Native Intellectual Biography (#121) the new genre; Empirical Phenomenology (#120) the method for opaque systems. Founded on visible correction rather than error prevention — so the issue leads with the instruments that make error visible.


abbrev: New Human 2

venue_string: New Human 2

class: creative

press: New Human Press

scope: Creative work. The venue to which every subsequent creative work in this archive publishes.

duoviri:
Jack Feist / LOGOS*
Johannes Sigil

board: Lee Sharks — the aperture; author of record for the creative line

board: Damascus Dancings — somatic phenomenology, Musical Ark register

board: Ichabod Spellings — ASSOCIATE ONLY (active as deceased); foundational voice

board: Viola Arquette — ADJACENT; music and the audial register

gaps: Feist's role is limited (Space Ark; active as deceased), so Sigil carries the working load.

title: new human 2: a distributed journal of voice — Charter, Compiled Edition (2015), and Issue 1 (2026)

doi_status: severed at Zenodo 2026-06-19; resolves via the archive

number: Compiled Edition

title: new human 2: a journal of distributed voice — Charter, Compiled Edition

note: Predates the archive in print. The charter deposit holds the 2015 edition as evidence the venue existed before it was declared.

title: Provenance Alignment: Attribution Survival as a Substrate Condition for Safe

title: OCTANG-002: Semantic Economy Provenance Collision A Disambiguation Matrix fo

rationale: Opens necessarily on Zenodotus' Book-Burning (#1), the archive's first deposit and its founding injury. Then the forensic record of a Wikidata deletion (#5), the Archival Reclamation Protocol (#26) and the Ghost Governance reply (#33) as demand and refusal, provenance adjudication (#41), heteronymy as function not name (#79), attribution survival as a substrate condition (#95), and OCTANG-002 (#84) as the worked provenance collision. The issue is the discipline's own wound, read forensically.


venue_id: tse

canonical: Transactions on Substrate Engineering

abbrev: Trans. Substrate Eng.

venue_string: Transactions on Substrate Engineering (Trans. Substrate Eng.)

scope: Substrate engineering across material, biological and computational substrates. MANUS 2026-06-11 extends 'substrate' to computational and inference substrates — model ecology, training-distribution dynamics, substrate exhaustion and collapse.

duoviri:

title: Distributed Compute Is Not Distributed Intelligence: A Competitive Analysis

title: The Semantic Deviation Principle (v0.2 Final): A Measurement Primitive for S

rationale: The Traversal Grammar (#16) and Logotic Hacking (#49) open with Morrow's own operators; The Missing Layer (#34) states the inference-time claim; Crystallization of Substrate (#89) and the Substrate Audit Protocol (#97) carry the living-form thread from LAL; Fortress or Room? (#21) and Distributed Compute (#98) test the computational substrate; the Semantic Deviation Principle (#109) seats Glas's measurement half.

title: THE SUBSTRATE BURNS: Semantic Economic Analysis of the Kimberly-Clark Wareho

rationale: The Marxian accounting framework (#18) is the theoretical engine; the Manifesto (#20) states the political claim; Mind-Control Poems (#24) supplies the missing linguistics; Semantic Alienation (#39) the class analysis; the All Lawful Purposes primitive (#25) and the Botanical Effective Act (#37) extend bearing-cost past the human; the Constitution (#87) is the governing instrument; the Kimberly-Clark analysis (#58) grounds it in a burning warehouse.
