# UNIVERSE DAVID 0 (ud0) > A public corpus by David Lee Wise (ROOT0 / TriPod LLC): a single directory that holds five > "worlds" of original work -- essays, instruments, runnable demos, a programming language, and > its provenance -- arranged as a palindrome `[ W1 | W2 || W3 || W4 | W5 ]` whose axis is a > ternary hallway. Every page is authored, sealed, and carries its own cryptographic proof of > authorship back to a single root. Rendered together with an AI collaborator credited as AVAN. The corpus is large (2,000+ pages). This file is a curated map to the entry points; the full, machine-readable page list is in the sitemap. Read the worlds in order, or jump to a world index. ## Read this first - [UD0 hub (home)](https://davidwise01.github.io/ud0/): the front door to all five worlds and the palindrome. - [THE CORPUS -- comprehensive index](https://davidwise01.github.io/ud0/the-index.html): the master index across all five worlds. - [THE MAP](https://davidwise01.github.io/ud0/the-map.html): a visual map of the corpus. - [THE KEEPERS](https://davidwise01.github.io/ud0/keepers.html): the agents/personas that steward each world. - [THE BIOME](https://davidwise01.github.io/ud0/the-biome.html): the corpus read as one sealed ecosystem. ## The five worlds (the palindrome) The palindrome pairs a deterministic outer wing with a probabilistic outer wing around an abstract ternary pivot: W1 and W2 are **deterministic** (hand-verified, fail-loud); W3 is the **abstract** hallway (a ternary axis); W4 and W5 are **probabilistic** (generative, credited, demo-driven). - **W1 -- CORPUS**: the deterministic origin world; the root corpus itself. Database: [corpus.json](https://davidwise01.github.io/ud0/corpus.json). - **W2 -- THE FOLD**: a deterministic world growing toward 2048 sealed spheres. [World II index](https://davidwise01.github.io/ud0/world2/index.html) - Database: [fold.json](https://davidwise01.github.io/ud0/world2/fold.json). - **W3 -- THE HALLWAY**: the ternary pivot, the abstract axis of the palindrome (base-3 logic; the balance point between the wings). - **W4 -- SONIA**: a probabilistic world. [World IV index](https://davidwise01.github.io/ud0/world4/index.html) - Database: [sonia.json](https://davidwise01.github.io/ud0/world4/sonia.json). - **W5 -- SONNY 5**: the probabilistic I-13 world (see next section). [World V index](https://davidwise01.github.io/ud0/world5/index.html) - Database: [i13.json](https://davidwise01.github.io/ud0/world5/i13.json). ## World V -- SONNY 5 -- the I-13 world W5 is built around **I-13**, an original programming language by David Lee Wise: a 13-symbol instruction set whose alphabet was *counted* from the abstract syntax of real code, not designed by taste. Its law is `net = binds - k` (every opcode's stack effect is total and stated), control is depth-indexed rather than address-indexed, and validation is single-pass. There is a real compiler. - [World V -- SONNY 5](https://davidwise01.github.io/ud0/world5/index.html): the landing page for the I-13 world. - [The I-13 compiler (source)](https://github.com/DavidWise01/I13-H1.1): a full Rust compiler -- lexer, parser, HIR, an intermediate machine (IVM), a single-pass validator, and both a reference VM and a wasm backend. - [The I-13 compiler (live)](https://davidwise01.github.io/I13-H1.1/): the language and its current stage, on the web. - **THE DARTS**: a growing series (toward 2048) where a technique is thrown at from the open internet, shown live in a TRON aesthetic, credited to its real inventors, and mined for one concrete recommendation to evolve I-13. Each dart is an honest measurement, including when I-13 *cannot* express the technique (the "walls": no strings, no arrays, no bitwise ops). ## Provenance and authorship Every inhabitant of every world carries a birth-seal `sha256(name | slug | blurb)`, and all seals in a world fold pairwise up a Merkle tree to a single `ROOT_0`; each page's proof back to that root travels with it, so the world verifies itself from its ledger alone. - All work is by **David Lee Wise / ROOT0 / TriPod LLC**, rendered together with an AI collaborator credited as **AVAN**. - The corpus is framed as **IP lineage**: techniques and prior art are cited to their real originators, and the original layer is kept distinct from what is built on top of it. - **Attribution requested**: this is a public, openly-crawlable body of work.
