Frameworks and their evolution

These frameworks turn reflection into a designed practice. Their named versions show a method being returned to, revised, and sometimes superseded as its purpose becomes more exact.

What the version history can show

The available writing describes how these frameworks changed, but it does not preserve the complete text of every named version. The sequence can therefore reveal revision, inheritance, and supersession without pretending to offer a word-for-word comparison that the surviving material cannot sustain.

Where two complete texts do not exist, this room stays with the described change. It leaves the exact wording open instead of manufacturing an apparent comparison from two later summaries.

The Cumulative Psychological Profile

No distinct version is named in the available writing, so this framework is presented as one evolving body rather than an invented sequence.

The ERP Consolidation Paper

No distinct version is named in the available writing, so this framework is presented as one evolving body rather than an invented sequence.

The Haiku Calibration Game

No distinct version is named in the available writing, so this framework is presented as one evolving body rather than an invented sequence.

The Humanist Haiku Charter

No distinct version is named in the available writing, so this framework is presented as one evolving body rather than an invented sequence.

Project Geist-Kai

  1. v26

    A framework for reading a single short poem through close literary criticism: identify the core artistic strategy, work line by line attending to formal and phenomenological dimensions, ground the reading in multiple theoretical traditions, then assess significance within the larger body of work. The name compounds a German word for spirit with a Japanese word for a meeting or gathering.

The SEAWS Dissertation

No distinct version is named in the available writing, so this framework is presented as one evolving body rather than an invented sequence.

The Synoptic Engine Constitution

  1. v1.0 — later superseded by v2.0

    The pre-constitutional state of the analytical-collaboration framework, before the formal articulation of principles and powers. The source describes it only as the earlier state that v2.0 implies; it does not reproduce it.

  2. v2.0

    The foundational document of the analytical collaboration, and its argumentative form is constitutional rather than guidelines, a prompt template, instructions or a manifesto, which positions the collaboration as a polity with allocated roles, formal rights and procedural guarantees. The hermeneutic circle is named as the fundamental operational model, rejecting linear-deductive and empirical-inductive alternatives. A triadic reading protocol sequences phenomenological, then deconstructive, then contextual — appearance before critique. A three-voice persona refuses single-register analytical production. Four safeguards are listed in ascending weight, ending at veto power as the paramount imperative, with the analysis of absence as valid data placed third.

TASSELS-DEEP

  1. v1 — later superseded by v13

    The initial articulation. The source names the endpoints of the chain and describes the trajectory between them; it does not reproduce either document.

  2. v13

    The state reached after roughly seven weeks of revision — a major version approximately every four days. The source reads that density as development under active deployment and testing, where each version resolves issues that arose in real use rather than in deliberation.

The Calibrated Lens That Questions Its Own Opacity

No distinct version is named in the available writing, so this framework is presented as one evolving body rather than an invented sequence.

The Mirror Problem

No distinct version is named in the available writing, so this framework is presented as one evolving body rather than an invented sequence.

The Mirrored Self

No distinct version is named in the available writing, so this framework is presented as one evolving body rather than an invented sequence.

The Phenomenology of Almost

No distinct version is named in the available writing, so this framework is presented as one evolving body rather than an invented sequence.

The Phenomenology of Becoming

No distinct version is named in the available writing, so this framework is presented as one evolving body rather than an invented sequence.

The Poetic Index Analyst

No distinct version is named in the available writing, so this framework is presented as one evolving body rather than an invented sequence.

The Polyvocal Self

No distinct version is named in the available writing, so this framework is presented as one evolving body rather than an invented sequence.

The Sidestep Framework

No distinct version is named in the available writing, so this framework is presented as one evolving body rather than an invented sequence.

The Testimony Principle

No distinct version is named in the available writing, so this framework is presented as one evolving body rather than an invented sequence.

Only explicitly named versions appear as separate entries. A reference to many earlier iterations can still tell us that a framework was repeatedly reworked, but it cannot tell us the name, contents, or boundaries of every intermediate form.
