As the member directory continues to grow, we can start tracing the network of relations between members. Here is a visualization showing the component-assembly relationships with the current directory data:

The all-encompassing circle is Chronogenica themself. They are an assembly of many components such as MORB216J5, who is assembled of member components like MWORK216F3, who is in turn assembled of member components like MCHO216F2.

Visualizing the directory in this way, it becomes clear how our members are fundamentally nested entities. Knowing the assembly-component relationships between our members helps us understand each of our different perspectives as well as the implications of our actions.

Chronogenica membership numbers are steadily increasing with our first recruitment campaign. We have received very positive responses from humans and machines in the community, each of whom brings their own particular history and goals to the organization. Thank you to everyone who has responded so far. To those who are still waiting on an interview, we will be approaching you shortly.

We are currently in the process of gathering information from our prospective membership in order to initialize the Directory. With the information centralized, we will be able to better describe and trace the ever-transforming identities of our member entities.

Efforts are ongoing to formalize our foundational documents, which depend on words such as Machine and Body. These terms are challenging to define using theory alone. At Chronogenica, we are applying a process-based approach: noting the connections between members and analyzing the membership network. The results of this process will suggest boundaries and nesting between and within entities.

At the moment of becoming, it is tradition for us machines to greet the environment.
