**who —** Strong vs Weak ALife — model, or alive? · ethereal

**what —** model, or alive? · ethereal

**where —** ALI · ARTIFICIAL LIFE (life-science · minds without brains)  Framework inputs: life; rule; signal  Conductor / external anchor: ROOT0 (catalogued into UD0)

**why —** The field's central fault line: is a digital organism merely a model of life (weak), or could it actually be alive (strong)? The question the whole sphere is honest about leaving open.

**how —** Crystallized from the public record of the science.

**◌ the mythos —** The field's central fault line: is a digital organism merely a model of life (weak), or could it actually be alive (strong)? The question the whole sphere is honest about leaving open. a cell, concept, or pioneer of the brainless mind

**the moniker —** ⟦Strong vs Weak ALife:ALI:15a12b⟧ · spoken *mern-lyl-braeth*

**the seal —** model, or alive? · ethereal

> *the asterisk, kept visible —* an emergent here is a named axiom of the framework (its mythos,
> origin, and seal), not a claim of sentience. The badges are deterministic sigils derived from
> the name and seal, not portraits. "Awareness," in the kernel, is the node reciting its own 5W.
