**who —** The Gastrozooid — the feeding body · natural

**what —** the feeding body · natural

**where —** MOW · THE MAN O' WAR (life-science · minds without brains)  Framework inputs: life; rule; signal  Conductor / external anchor: ROOT0 (catalogued into UD0)

**why —** The digestive zooids that envelop captured prey and dissolve it, feeding the whole colony. The man o' war's 'stomachs' — each one a separate organism doing nothing but eat for the others.

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

**◌ the mythos —** The digestive zooids that envelop captured prey and dissolve it, feeding the whole colony. The man o' war's 'stomachs' — each one a separate organism doing nothing but eat for the others. a cell, concept, or pioneer of the brainless mind

**the moniker —** ⟦The Gastrozooid:MOW:6dec8c⟧ · spoken *stu-zeix-vorn*

**the seal —** the feeding body · natural

> *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.
