What founders do after founding.

Unfounding

Record

Unfounding is written by someone who founded, sat in the seats, and left them. The name is the method: the founder narrative is taken apart to show what is under it, the seats, the giving, the measurement, the load, and the record that survives an arrangement. These pages are the standing record of one field, Exchange, read across Provision, Reciprocity and Contract, written for the person who has just become a founder and has no vocabulary yet for what is happening to them.

Method

Every entry names a mechanism, and a claim without a mechanism under it does not appear. The entries are drafted from the record and from published research, with language models in the drafting, and held to the rule of the record: measurement, never judgment. No real names, no companies, no identifying places; roles, not people. A term is stated once and never explained twice on the same page.

Correction

An entry found wrong is corrected in the entry itself and dated, never defended beside it.

Colophon

Written by someone who did it. That is the whole colophon.

Six fields, each writing its own terms

The terms are written where they belong. Each field holds three desks, and every entry a desk writes raises the terms it uses, each term given a meaning, a mechanism and the places it appears. The record on these pages stays first person and hand made; the fields grow the nomenclature.
