# Research notes

## Sources and access
Ten sources (S01-S10) inspected 2026-09-20T00:21Z to 00:40Z. All fetches succeeded. The registry description is the primary conception document; the registry interview field is null (EX-03). The artist's own project page (S07) supplied the Brautigan epigraph and the browser-native framing. The CC BY-NC 4.0 deed (S08) was fetched for this batch and read.

## Full script inspection
Script from projects_metadata.script via exact-slug query; 8,717 bytes; SHA-256 feef33106d85d0e95ee12fbb42d401699bf399ba6e2686d1f69c3531e637eced (recomputed locally, matches). Read in full (chunked passes plus symbol map). Coverage: xorshift32 PRNG seeded from the first 16 hex characters of the hash; hash byte mapping helpers; weighted named scheme table (Lemon w12, Plum w14, Currants w14, Apple w24, Gooseberry w20, others); curated elementary-CA ruleset list; asymmetric panel grid (wArr [2,3], hArr [2,3,4,5]); per-frame single-row automaton advance; noLoop() when all panels done; semi-transparent ellipse noise wash; no interaction or audio code. Script bytes retained only for hashing.

## Token identity and visual observation
All 140 token records pulled (query in research4/fetch_tokens.py). Five static previews downloaded and viewed (V01-V05). Live renderer for 321000059 executed twice in headless Chrome (V06): run 1 killed at the harness timeout after t+30s with measurements recorded; run 2 completed: hash matched chain; frames at approx 4s, 34s and 124s all differ; two frames 5 seconds apart near the 3-minute mark byte-identical (settled); zero audio elements.

## Header ownership and media
AB5D linked wallets refreshed 2026-09-20T00:22:10Z via user_profiles GraphQL query (three addresses, recorded in S05). Owner scan of all 140 tokens found exactly one edition held: number 59, owned by 0xdd19308a9731cdecb67e0d80ca6823394208c045, minted 2022-07-06T15:59:54Z, six seconds before the announced start (EX-02). Edition 59 selected as header as the sole AB5D holding. Media URL in presentation.json.

## Mint chronology and calculations
First mint 2022-06-03T16:41:47Z (edition 0, 7 days pre-activation). Activation 2022-06-10T23:01:22Z. Registry start_datetime 2022-07-06T16:00:00Z (= collection page release line). Edition 1 at 15:59:30Z (30s before announced start), edition 59 at 15:59:54Z (6s before), edition 139 (last) at 16:00:23Z. Sale duration from edition 1 to edition 139: 53 seconds. Monthly histogram: 2022-06 1, 2022-07 139. Project reported complete=true, locked=true, paused=false, active=true. Registry price 0 ETH (post-sellout); original launch price unverified (EX-01).

## Rights and conflicts
Artwork label 'CC BY-NC 4.0' (registry, with link_to_license); category creative-commons; deed terms summarized from the fetched deed (Share and Adapt; Attribution, NonCommercial; no additional restrictions). Code licence: none found in script; recorded as unknown. Platform runtime dependency p5.js 1.0.0 only; zero external assets. No conflicts found.

## Unresolved questions and exceptions
EX-01 original mint price unverified (pending). EX-02 pre-start mint timestamps unexplained (pending). EX-03 no project-specific interview (pending). EX-04 settle timing is single-token software-rendered observation (pending). EX-05 scheme rarity code-derived only (pending).

## Actual model, tools, elapsed time and measured usage
Model: Kimi (Moonshot AI), version not exposed. Tools: curl, Python 3, headless Chrome via puppeteer-core, Art Blocks GraphQL, web search/fetch. Elapsed for this package: roughly 20 minutes within the batch session. Token telemetry unavailable; usage.json fields null except timestamps.

## Checks report

| Check | Report |
| --- | --- |
| Identity and package | Slug fermented-fruit-by-cyberia; chain 1; contract and project ID match the supplied roster and fresh registry record; all seven files present. |
| Structure and citations | 1677 words; seven sections in order; essay.md byte-identical to record.json sections via the supplied reading format; source IDs unique; citations resolve both ways (validator PASS plus builder pre-check). |
| Source research | See 'Sources and access' above: every cited source inspected with specific locators; uninspected leads (login-walled) kept here in notes, not in the ledger. |
| Code | Full assembled script retrieved via exact-slug GraphQL query; read in full; SHA-256 recomputed locally and matching evidence.json and record.json; execution disclosed separately (live renderer run). |
| Visual evidence | See 'Token identity and visual observation': distinct token/observation identities V01+ with two sustained close readings in the essay; observer is this agent; motion/controls/audio status stated per work. |
| Header | Fresh AB5D wallet set via user_profiles GraphQL query (three addresses, this session); header token owner matched against the set; media and rights/display basis in presentation.json. |
| History and rights | Chronology and duration calculations in 'Mint chronology and calculations'; current vs historical values distinguished; artwork/code/dependency rights separate; unresolved findings listed. |
| Provenance and usage | Actual model credit (Kimi, Moonshot AI; version not exposed); token telemetry null with explanation; startedAt/cutoff timezone-aware ISO 8601, cutoff at or after start. |
| Validator | Command `python3 scripts/validate_series_essays.py submission/fermented-fruit-by-cyberia` run from the extracted pack root at 2026-09-20T00:48:18Z; validator file scripts/validate_series_essays.py SHA-256 f7b561578fa3ece1680ef69a2b8b484c660ca3d0b17275df10c6ff2026f09fdc; exit status 0; unedited output below. |
| Submission state | complete-draft (validator PASS; manual research checks reported above; pending editorial exceptions listed in record.json). |
