⌸ the screens

the screens — Wing K, and NOT a descendants' bench. The other two wings describe organisations that took the Tree; this one describes reception: where the sephirot actually reach people, in games, comics, film, television, records, tabletop and the underground. ⌸ TRACE is the mechanic — pick a work, guess where it got that, one stop at a time backwards to the source. Nothing is scored and no wrong guess is punished; what the room keeps is a tally of every stop you land on, drawn as a funnel, and the verdict is computed from YOUR tally rather than written into the page. Trace three and it looks like coincidence; trace ten and nearly everything converges on two Latin books and one Frenchman's table. The centrepiece finding: the Tree of Life in End of Evangelion is KIRCHER'S, most likely by way of a 1951 French paperback — the same 1652 Jesuit diagram this app itself booted on until 2026-07-25. ∅ NO CHAIN AT ALL gives its own room to the currents that never passed through the fork — Supreme Mathematics, Sun Ra, Rammellzee, Kirby's Source Wall, Cohen's liturgy, the 1920 Golem — because filing them as descendants would be false. ◱ THE MIRROR is this app's own entry in its own index.
