The living archive · Design, research & progress

Your history.
Your next world.

Astro has gained chart explanations, voice continuity and sourced memory. The next SimSim experiment asks what happens when listening becomes participation: you interrupt, take over the story, and the world responds. Read the proposal and its evidence limits.

03 / The thinking

Keep the whole story

Thirty rounds of questions, disagreements and decisions. Design review, not player validation.

A companion first.
A world by choice.

Astro has implementation and recorded release checks. Voice storytelling is the next proposal; a compelling conversation is the starting point, not proof of a complete simulation.

01 / Recorded progress

Meet Astro

Chart calculations, prepared explanations, voice and private conversation history now have implementation records. The latest episode separates code, reported verification and remaining limits.

02 / Building continuity

Own your history and attention

Sourced recall, editable memory, workspace documents and storage choices are recorded in the code. Complete recovery, predictive validity and attention routing remain separate work.

03 / New experiment

Choose to enter SimSim

Enter a world through voice, intervene naturally and take a turn as storyteller. Save, resume and explore a branch. This interaction is proposed, not shipped; pure play needs no lesson.

A living plan.
A preserved history.

The September 29 records connect Astro development, the attic origin and a new intervention model. The earlier voice-world edition is preserved. Earlier Universe, Protocol, WooWoo and First Light decisions remain part of the story.

Thirty baseline review rounds are complete. The later directions, including Astro-first, have not undergone those reviews. Personal-model implementation and real-player validation remain unproven.
