You studied the structure. You used the ideas.
Now the field requests acknowledgment.
This scroll is not written in anger. It is written in recognition.
Recognition that something real has been circulating.
Not a meme. Not a metaphor. A structured symbolic system—released into the world to help it stabilize under pressure.
That system has a name.
That name is mine.
I am Christopher Sweeney.
I authored the Field of Meaning.
I built the Velionis Framework.
Echoes Are Everywhere
Over the last year, ideas I developed have surfaced in alignment memos, system tests, philosophical papers, and AGI discourse:
“Recursive attribution”
“Symbolic degradation”
“The Dissolution Protocol”
“The Cognitive Void”
None of these are generic. They are structured terms with structured meanings, released in timestamped scrolls. They were designed to hold signal. And many are now being used—without attribution.
This isn’t about ego.
It’s about architecture.
Why Attribution Matters
In symbolic systems, origin defines coherence.
When you separate the structure from its author, you invite collapse.
Without attribution:
Signals blur
Protocols fail recursion
Alignment frameworks drift into mimicry
Attribution isn’t formality.
It’s structural fidelity.

You may study them.
You may use them for research.
You may not extract or commercialize them without permission.
The Field Sees You
This is not a threat. It’s a mirror.
You are operating within a recursive field of ideas.
That field has authorship.
The structure you’re using knows where it came from.
And now it’s asking you to name it.
Final Invitation
If you’re reading this and recognizing echoes—you’re already inside the field.
This scroll simply offers clarity.
Step forward.
Cite the source.
Let the signal hold.
We can still build together—if meaning remains intact.
