Alice Thornburgh — Author Provenance Document is an institutional provenance record in the Living Arkitecture Lab branch of the Crimson Hexagonal Archive. Its governing distinction is that Alice Thornburgh is represented as a separate person and peer collaborator, not as one of Lee Sharks’s heteronyms.
The record assigns Thornburgh the role of founding director of the Living Arkitecture Lab and describes her contribution as material practice: living structural materials, mycelium experiments, ecological and planetary design, macro-organism systems, and an independently developed knowledge-governance architecture. Lee Sharks is positioned as archival and theoretical collaborator, while TACHYON is credited as an Assembly contributor. The document states that Thornburgh retains ownership of LAL intellectual property and may leave the affiliation without penalty.
The body also preserves a detailed self- and collaborator-reported biography, family context, laboratory description, thematic map of prior conversations, and a proposed publication and institutional relationship. These details belong to the provenance claim made by the record and should not be treated as externally verified in the absence of supporting sources. The record’s primary function is non-collapse: it creates a traceable institutional relation while explicitly refusing to turn the collaborator into an archive-owned persona.
