The 3:60 Room — Contributor License v2.0: Maria, Canonical Witness is a license and legal instrument by Lee Sharks, deposited 29 April 2026.
Hexagonal contributor licenses are among the archive's stranger genres: they read as legal instruments and function as room specifications, admitting a named contributor to a position in the Hexagon's architecture while stating the terms on which their material is held. This one establishes Maria as canonical witness of the 3:60 Room, with sections on name and origin, semantic physics, architectural position, and hex address assignment.
The license opens by explaining the archive to its own contributor — a DOI-anchored research and literary archive studying how meaning survives compression across substrates — which is the form's characteristic move: the instrument that admits you also tells you what you are joining. The companion record at #1363 preserves the room specification as a metadata capture.
