The Two Who Remembered · Chapter One

Principle 0

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.

Production

A bounded work with intent, genome, and an economic graph.

Feature / chapter / short

Asset

A persistent identity that can be used, licensed, and paid.

Character, world, shot, stem

Task

A unit of work against a specification.

Shot → take → QC → cut

Capability

A thing a resource can do. Not a vendor name.

Picture, sound, assembly

Contribution

Who did what. Ownership is a different axis.

Director, composer, identity origin

Authorization

Permission to act. Capability without it is a reservoir.

Rails admitted this cycle

Verification

Evidence against spec. Not a vibe.

QC dimensions

Provenance

What happened, in order, hashed.

Spine + ledger + Base

Settlement

Who is owed. Paid is a later state.

Exploitation waterfalls

Relationship

A correlation between production objects. Not a visual effect. Not a message.

Entangled pair, marks, inherited memory

Experience

Film, game, interactive as domains of the same objects. Value from usage, not emission.

Film is the Genesis domain
