FUNEBRA ARCHIVE
F-0001 Core Specification The Minimal Observable Vocabulary v1.0 – Frozen 2026-07
Scope
F-0001 defines the minimal conceptual vocabulary required for interoperability between Funebra implementations.
It intentionally does not define:
- Rendering or visualization
- User interfaces
- Specific programming languages or APIs
- Storage or serialization formats (see later documents)
- Concrete mathematical generators
- Any particular implementation details
Those are addressed in subsequent documents in the Archive.
Core Ontology
BN Point (bn0) The atomic observable unit of the Funebra framework. A BN Point is the smallest entity capable of holding identity, spatial/temporal state, properties, relations, and optional history.
Relation A typed connection between BN Points (or groups). Carries source, target, type, weight/strength, and temporal bounds.
Property An observable attribute attached to a BN Point or Relation.
Generator A rule, function, or process that creates, evolves, or transforms BN Points and Relations over time.
Representation A stable, observable structure emerging from BN Points, Relations, and Generators.
Universe / Scene A bounded collection of BN Points, Relations, active Generators, and Representations at a given moment.
Knowledge An observable representation whose properties and relations remain reproducible under repeated observation within a defined boundary.
Epistemic Status Ladder
- Vision – An idea worth exploring.
- Hypothesis – A claim requiring testing.
- Method – A reproducible procedure.
- Evidence – Observed, reproducible results.
- Boundary – Known limits of applicability.
- Knowledge – Evidence that remains reproducible inside its stated boundary.
Conformance
A system may identify itself as Funebra-compatible only if it preserves the vocabulary and semantics defined in this specification (and subsequent approved Archive documents).
Foundational Principles (v1.0)
- Everything begins with BN Points.
- Relations generate observable behavior.
- Observation is itself a BN Point event inside the system.
- Memory is a force capable of influencing future behavior.
- Every non-trivial system must declare its boundaries.
- All meaningful outputs must be exportable and reproducible.
