PUBLICATION NOTES / 0.1
The colophon.
CHRIS HAY is a house for ideas, systems and objects: one practice across research, engineering, design and film. This publication is its primary record. CHRISHAYUK is the web address and handle.
An evolving publication
The site brings together software, films and research as the work develops. Each record carries its own status, sources and dates. Notebook drafts remain drafts until individually reviewed and published.
Composed with HAUSE
Real HAUSE semantic forms render the record. The publication adds its own photographic sequences, responsive media and a shared motion coordinator. Newsreader supplies the editorial titles; Archivo carries prose, navigation and captions. Geist Mono carries record metadata, dates, status, citations, code and numerical instruments.
Rights and sources
Selected IBM episodes use their official YouTube players and posters. IBM remains the producer and host of the original footage; Chris appears as a participant. The collection leads with his latest verified appearance and the most-viewed episode in the official playlist snapshot. Earlier editorial appearance records remain available.
The typographic social image was generated for this publication. Research notes retain source descriptions and exact draft status.
The media and production register
The register includes available media and planned photography or film. Some planned material is not used on the current homepage. Where a page shows a production slot, it is labelled; it is not a photograph of Chris or his work.

Discovery and distribution
Public notebook entries appear in search discovery while retaining their draft labels. The sitemap focuses on authored work; the film collections remain available as source catalogues. Each notebook entry supplies a canonical social card and share links. LinkedIn and X are places for the idea to travel; this site keeps the complete record.
Publishing the record
The record feed carries published records only. The default JSON Feed carries the notebook, with draft status explicit; /record/feed.json is its published-only counterpart. The notebook feed carries the notebook as it is actually kept, drafts included, each entry labelled with its status, version and recorded date — a draft that arrived looking like a publication would be the one thing these feeds must never do. A feed item corresponds to a recorded object or a material revision, never to a passing edit. The machine-readable index also includes source-attributed YouTube catalogue records. Draft references omit a publication date and state the date the work was first publicly recorded. Material revisions will retain their earlier snapshots and citations.
The independent archive
Canonical pages are submitted to the Internet Archive after each deploy, and the date of the first capture is recorded against the page. It corroborates; it does not replace this record. Captures can be partial, assets can fail to preserve, and the Wayback Machine is not a scholarly registry. Where nothing has been captured, no archive line is shown. Unlisted previews are never submitted, because a third-party capture cannot be withdrawn.
Following the work
Following is anonymous by construction. There is no account, no email address and no subscriber list, because the watching happens in the reader’s own tools rather than here; this site never learns who is following it. Alongside the feeds, follow.json is a publication signal for readers that are programs: it states each record’s version, whether it is a draft, when it was recorded, and whether the change since last time was a material revision rather than an edit. Its updated_at is derived from the newest record, so polling it when nothing has been published returns exactly the same document.
