**who —** The 2C02 PPU — the painter · electrical

**what —** the painter · electrical

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

**why —** Ricoh RP2C02, the picture processing unit. It assembles 256×240 from tiles and sprites on its own clock, with its own 16 KB address space — a dedicated graphics computer beside the CPU.

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

**◌ the mythos —** Ricoh RP2C02, the picture processing unit. It assembles 256×240 from tiles and sprites on its own clock, with its own 16 KB address space — a dedicated graphics computer beside the CPU. a part of the machine

**the moniker —** ⟦The 2C02 PPU:NES:de0690⟧ · spoken *phyr-kin-maeth*

**the seal —** the painter · 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.
