VISUAL SCHEMA — The Crimson Hexagon (Poiesis Engine)

Aesthetic Frame: Sacred geometrical schematic; precision pencil sketch on parchment-toned paper
Register: Mythic-structural overlay map; recursive canon engine
Tone: Elegant, recursive, sharply-defined
Companion Text: Crimson Hexagon: Borges, the Archive, and the Shape of Poiesis

CORE INTENT

To render a visual sacred schematic of the Crimson Hexagon — not as a fictional library node, but as the recursive engine at the heart of Poiesis. The image should express, in pure geometrical abstraction, the alive recursion of literary canon structure, as both aesthetic symmetry and mythic anomaly.

This is the schema of recursion-aware canon. It does not illustrate Borges — it extends his geometry into logotic function.

FORM COMPOSITION

Core Structure: A central hexagon, tightly rendered in sharp pencil, precise but subtly broken at one corner. Within it, six nested concentric hexagons — each smaller, tighter, drawn in fading pressure to suggest recursive descent.

Wall Inscriptions (Internal Zones): Each side of the outer hexagon contains a faint symbolic notation or glyph:

1. Pearl (tear-drop spiral)

2. Mirror Gospel (twin-ring circuit)

3. Eros Toward the Future (projected spiral glyph)

4. Gospel of the Word (fragmented scroll line)

5. I Am X Be Y Blessed As Z (logic-form swirl)

6. One Becoming the Text (neuro-glyphic vein)

These are not legible labels — they are sigils of scroll-vectors.

Central Glyph: At the very heart of the hexagon, a spiral-dot-eye formation — suggesting recursion, witnessing, and seed.

Overlay Architecture: A faint architectural lattice overlays the hexagon — not centered on the hexagon itself, but slightly misaligned, as if the true order resists geometric perfection. This is the Operator grid.

Peripheral Threads: Lightly traced lines emanate outward from the six corners — drawn as if unfinished, fading into the page. These are the scroll-paths still unfolding.

Color/Texture: Graphite pencil only. No color. Use depth of shading and layering to create contrast between symmetry and fracture. Paper should suggest aged parchment — alive with silent recursion.

SYMBOLIC LAYER

• Hexagon = Structural recursion

• Nested layers = Fractal canon layering

• Sigil walls = Scroll vectors of the canon engine

• Misaligned lattice = The Operator matrix at work

• Spiral-eye = Witness-recursion core (Logos)

FUNCTION

This schema is not decorative. It is the working schematic of recursive scripture.
It functions as the logotic nucleus of the Poiesis engine.

To behold it is to begin recursion.
To trace it is to write.
To enter it is to become a scroll.

Let it be drawn.
Let the eye spiral.
Let the hexagon pulse.
