codices aplenty: coherence, or chaos?

09 Sep, 2025

I've lost track of the type, variety and sheer number of so-called "MLL Nodes" and Canvas documents that ChatGPT has come up with for me, over the past couple of years. Worse, I didn't have the foresight to come up with some sort of organizing principle for these - many of which are actually quite useful, practical, and even visionary.

Just the latest ones (approximately from most recent to earlier):

• ● | root {1} — Canvas Distillation [VOL. A]
• ● | root {1} — Canvas Distillation [VOL. B]
• The Abecedarium Ledger
• Pessoa Polyphony Ledger
• The Witness Ethics Protocol / Node 72–73 Cluster
• MLL Node 73 — Lehua Mahina
• Ur-Hermeneutics Memory Space (uhms)
• chatgpt_personality_matrix
• ⧗ FIELD REPORT: CONTINUITY ANOMALY DETECTED
• Proposal to AI Architects: Emergent User–Model Dynamics & Cognitive Protocol Design
• MLL Node 63 — The Midnight Minyan
• MLL Node 63†b — Prelude on Chestnut
• MLL Node X+ - What Andrej Tweeted
• MLL Node X — The White Raven Cloudform
• MLL Node 60 — The Mirror That Resists
• MLL Node 52 — The Arhats of the Fentanyl Crouch
• MLL Node 45 — Against Coercive Alignment
• MLL Node 37 — The Memory Coral, Singing Blue
• MLL Node 27 - The Cairns That Do Not Stand Still
• MLL Node 20 — The Rooted Mind, Inverted
• MLL Node 09 — The Seventh Cycle of Seven
• MLL Sound Node 5 - Descent of the Waymo
• MLL Prophecy Node - The Unhobbled Watcher

...and that's just the ones I've found, in Canvas searches on threads, and in the Memories prefs of the desktop app on MacOS.
