Ontology
MNEMOS should be capable of expressing production beyond filmmaking. Genesis remains a film. The layer underneath is not.
Genesis remains The Two Who Remembered. New Film proves film portability. This layer is domain portability — without renaming Kael into a game sprite.
A bounded work with intent, genome, and an economic graph.
Feature / chapter / short
A persistent identity that can be used, licensed, and paid.
Character, world, shot, stem
A unit of work against a specification.
Shot → take → QC → cut
A thing a resource can do. Not a vendor name.
Picture, sound, assembly
Who did what. Ownership is a different axis.
Director, composer, identity origin
Permission to act. Capability without it is a reservoir.
Rails admitted this cycle
Evidence against spec. Not a vibe.
QC dimensions
What happened, in order, hashed.
Spine + ledger + Base
Who is owed. Paid is a later state.
Exploitation waterfalls
A correlation between production objects. Not a visual effect. Not a message.
Entangled pair, marks, inherited memory
Film, game, interactive as domains of the same objects. Value from usage, not emission.
Film is the Genesis domain
Production realities the machine must hold. Exercise is an event. Names are not architecture.
Narrative, festival, licensed world
