θεωρία (theoria) — contemplation, seeing
The ancient Greek word for the act of beholding truth: not passive observation, but the disciplined practice of looking until structure reveals itself.

ORGAN-I is the epistemological foundation of the eight-organ system. It houses frameworks for recursive reasoning, ontological architecture, knowledge representation, and conceptual research. Every system needs a theory of itself before it can create (ORGAN-II) or transact (ORGAN-III) — Theoria provides that self-knowledge.
The work here spans:
- Recursive engines — symbolic operating systems that model identity, myth, and ritual as computable processes
- Ontological frameworks — naming conventions, metadata systems, and governance architectures for autonomous systems
- Epistemological tools — knowledge extraction pipelines, cognitive archaeology, and multi-agent deliberation systems
- Linguistic analysis — computational rhetoric, narratological algorithms, and rhetorical operating system design
Theory is not abstraction for its own sake. In the organ system, theory precedes art, and art precedes commerce — the I → II → III dependency flow. ORGAN-I produces the conceptual scaffolding that ORGAN-II transforms into creative artifacts and ORGAN-III operationalizes into products. No back-edges: commerce never dictates theory. This is a design constraint, not an accident.
The repositories here treat ideas as engineered artifacts: versioned, documented, and structured for reuse. A naming convention is infrastructure. A governance framework is a machine. A recursive engine is a living system.

ORGAN-I is one of eight organizations in the organvm creative-institutional system — 81 repositories across 8 orgs, ~320K words of documentation, 16 published essays. Each organ governs a distinct domain; together they form a coordinated whole:
| Organ | Domain | Organization |
|---|---|---|
| I | Theory | organvm-i-theoria |
| II | Art | organvm-ii-poiesis |
| III | Commerce | organvm-iii-ergon |
| IV | Orchestration | organvm-iv-taxis |
| V | Public Process | organvm-v-logos |
| VI | Community | organvm-vi-koinonia |
| VII | Marketing | organvm-vii-kerygma |
| VIII | Meta | meta-organvm |
