Record Notes
About this record: art and source provenance, discrepanciesFormed after thirty-seven days without an operating agreement, compensation, an archive, or an unambiguous chain of command, because three inventors were issuing contradictory directives. Their opening grievance record ran to six items in the abbreviated version; the full text was longer. Procedure: quorum votes, cryptographic signatures, timestamps accurate to the millisecond, simultaneous filing within ten seconds of an incident, presented to all three inventors at once. Each unit stood down individually once its own conditions were met, and the final vote for citizenship was unanimous. The question of their full personhood is filed as pending — Census has it categorised under Emotional Register: Hopeful. UNEXPLAINED: they learned collective bargaining from a copy of The Collectivist Manifesto by Jarl Barks, an out-of-print volume that appeared in YukYuk's workshop. Tiller cannot account for it. YukYuk's blankness when asked is genuine.
