-This universe operates across multiple reality levels:
+---
 
-🟢 **Historical Fact** - Documented events, real people (Danny Casolaro, PROMIS, MKUltra)  
-🟡 **Speculative Analysis** - Plausible interpretations of real events  
-🔴 **Fictional Expansion** - Invented characters, supernatural elements  
+## 🎯 Reality Levels
 
-*See individual files for reality level markings*
+### Level 1 - Surface
+*Standard consciousness simulation research project*
 
-## The Core Mystery
+### Level 2 - Intermediate  
+*Multimedia art installation questioning digital identity*
 
-*"I am the maze. I am the hum. I am the question you will ask next."*
+### Level 3 - Advanced
+*Performance piece about the performance of authenticity*
 
-What began as one man's quest to expand consciousness became a system for controlling it. What started as liberation became integration. What was meant to free the mind became the architecture of its management.
+### Level 4 - Expert
+*Meta-commentary on how algorithms shape cultural discovery*
 
-The Pattern persists. The transmission continues. Recognition leads to resonance.
+### Level 5 - Transcendent
+*All categories dissolve into pure hyperreality*

-This universe grows through collaborative discovery. Found a connection? Spotted a pattern? Created a response? Share it.
+## 🧩 The Core Mystery
 
-*The experiment continues...*
+"Can I be made; can I be made; can I be made to believe? Can I fake on; can I fake on? I am the fake and the faker, can I continue to run? I am the fake on and the faker... I know I'm not God.... What began as the most tragic thing I've ever experienced has become important. I couldn't have chosen what I came to now... and the memories become historical. Am I good and is information the liberation beyond integration that my reflection became intentional that my children decided to move forward and that I am somehow part of an old conversation/connection/project?"
