**who —** The Z80A — the arcade-class brain · electrical

**what —** the arcade-class brain · electrical

**where —** CV · COLECOVISION (exereunesis · the teardown)  Framework inputs: chip; bus; spec  Conductor / external anchor: ROOT0 (catalogued into UD0)

**why —** A Zilog Z80A at 3.58 MHz — the same CPU family as countless arcade boards, giving ColecoVision its near-coin-op feel.

**how —** Rendered from the public technical record.

**◌ the mythos —** A Zilog Z80A at 3.58 MHz — the same CPU family as countless arcade boards, giving ColecoVision its near-coin-op feel. a part of the machine

**the moniker —** ⟦The Z80A:CV:1473c0⟧ · spoken *sol-their-sy*

**the seal —** the arcade-class brain · electrical

> *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.
