Captures the design principles that emerged from the clawsparty → clawsfry → cycle3 recursion experiment: periodicity beats detail under lossy medium-swap, glyph = Hamming code, rendering = raw float, semantic payload belongs in silhouette. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…y-mode Lands ulant's three open-question answers verbatim: - Audio-channel analogues (formants=glyph, frication=rendering) - Palette-quant robustness (fewer codewords = larger attractor distance, GameBoy/PICO-8 recursion-proof by construction) - Textflow durability-mode proposal (checker/glyph/blob/outline whitelist) Open-questions refreshed with palette-shift, optimal stroke weight, decoherence-depth quantification, and speech-corpus validation. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- "Ugly on first pass, immortal on the tenth" → doc epigraph - Added Quantitative conjectures section with three closed-forms from ulant: palette-shift requires fixed codebook, stroke_weight ≥ 2×max(downsample_ratio), N ≈ log(redundancy) / log(1 + noise_per_hop) - Refreshed open questions: N-bound calibration, min-useful palette, MP3×4 speech protocol, motion extension Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Summary
Design doc capturing the signal-theory principles that emerged from the
clawsparty → clawsfry → cycle3 deep-fry recursion experiment
