Appendix J
Provenance for the complete Humaneness PerformanceNet reading edition
Separate what the supplied reference says about its sources from the files available for this edition. Keep the citation, revision and hash trail visible so the reader can judge what is traceable.
The original HTML and three supplied PDFs.
Source descriptions retained.
The source’s plain-language definitions.
Part of Humaneness PerformanceNet: Script Analysis authors a performance from source material; Performance Annotation describes recorded or generated scenes. Shared taxonomies support filtering, generation and diverse data selection.
Appendix J / Reader’s guide
A citation tells you where a claim came from. An available file lets you inspect it. A revision or hash identifies a particular version. These are different kinds of evidence.
| Status | Meaning in this edition |
|---|---|
| Supplied input | The file was present in the workspace and could be inspected during production. |
| Inherited external citation | The original reference supplies the URL or pinned revision. Historical claims remain source claims; any additional checks are identified separately. |
| Unavailable legacy companion | The original reference names a local file that was not supplied. Its exact path remains as provenance text, without a misleading download link. |
| Newly authored companion | A new example, schema or reading legend created for this revision. It does not stand in for an unavailable historical file. |
The source descriptions below are marked as inherited. For example, the pricing item’s “checked 16 October 2026” is a claim made by the source document, not a newly performed check. Historical hash values are copied exactly; they are not certificates that an absent file has been verified.
One system, two perspectives. The Script Analysis System supplies a structure for authoring the virtual actor. PerformanceNet supplies observation and evaluation vocabularies. The shared design connects their use while retaining the distinct source versions, assumptions and validation limits.
Appendix J / Available evidence
Four input files were supplied: the original PerformanceNet HTML, its PDF rendering, the original Humaneness Script Analysis System PDF and the later illustrated three-layer Script Analysis System PDF. The HTML supplies the PerformanceNet text and appendices. The two Script Analysis System documents supply the companion’s research vocabulary and its illustrated character–scene–beat framing.

Source context / historical planning
These passages are preserved from the supplied main reference so its planning detail remains traceable. They describe a particular earlier campaign, not requirements of the Humaneness Script Analysis System or PerformanceNet, and do not establish that the campaign was executed.
Generation companion — Exact integer quotas, 50% changing scenes, 806 Morris inspiration entries and a separate $2,000 EN/DE (English/German language split) API (application programming interface) budget.
This is a PerformanceNet integration of missing audible facets, not a second complete VoiceNet appendix. The separate generation plan contains the explicit 57-dimension production crosswalk and quotas because that campaign uses those predictors. A versioned acoustic profile can store the full predictor output, while the master keeps its own audiovisual organisation. The public 59-dimension taxonomy and the pinned 57-output production codebook must not be silently interchanged.
For the companion generation campaign, exactly half the requested scenes contain a meaningful change. That is a sampling choice, not a claim that every good performance needs a turn. Sustained composure, grief, delight or cool refusal can be dramatically rich when attention and action stay responsive. The other half must therefore remain alive without manufacturing an obligatory emotional switch.
The repository knowledge base contains 100 concepts, 302 techniques, 174 exercises and 230 recommendations attributed to the Eric Morris system: 806 entries. In the generation plan every entry has nine or ten condition assignments. This broadens inspiration beyond the former source-group share of roughly one fifth. The adaptation is editorial: a rehearsal exercise becomes a useful scene-design question, not a command for a speech model to simulate a human unconscious or for an actor to recreate personal trauma.
Fifty source context records were previously catalogue-only mature contexts. They remain fully indexed here. The new generation allocation includes their source IDs through non-graphic contextual adaptations where applicable. Such a scene is recorded as an adaptation, not falsely counted as a literal rendition of the original phenomenon. The plan publishes both ID (identifier) coverage and treatment type; no omission is hidden behind a claim that every source behaviour was generated.
This release is an auditable specification and planning package. It does not contain newly generated audio, a validated benchmark or measured annotation accuracy. The JSON (JavaScript Object Notation; structured data text) catalogues, scale extraction, integer allocation and document builds are checked locally. These checks establish consistency of the artifacts, not reliability of human judgements or controllability of a TTS (text-to-speech) model.
These files are new editorial deliverables. The Script Analysis System generation schema and worked examples describe the revised virtual-actor prompting workflow; they do not reproduce the unavailable historical files actor_state_dictionary_v1.schema.json or actor_state_illustrative_examples_v1.json. JSON means JavaScript Object Notation, a structured text format. A schema defines the expected fields and structure.
Defines the structure for character, scene and beat records, including one Experience Chunk for each beat.
Three characters, six scenes and 24 beats illustrate the schema; these examples are newly authored.
Exact human-readable names copied from the supplied A/B/C records, including the eight observer impressions.
Source scale names and qualified reading explanations, with provenance for verified and unresolved items.
The VoiceNet scale names used to explain inherited comparison codes were checked against the pinned primary codebook. This name check does not verify the source’s physiological explanations or empirical validity.
SHA-256 is a 256-bit Secure Hash Algorithm file fingerprint. A matching fingerprint supports file identity; it does not establish that a framework is valid.
The supplied input inventory above identifies the four original project inputs. The integrated revision also inspects the pinned primary VoiceNet codebook and situation data; the named taxonomy volumes record their exact provenance, exceptions and editorial changes. Their source snapshots are included in the research folder. These source checks do not establish empirical validity for the original causal claims.
| Earlier reading name | Current role and name |

| Actor-State Atlas | Humaneness Script Analysis System: source-driven fictional character and performance design. |
| PerformanceNet main reference | Humaneness Performance Annotation System: observed scene description, interpretation and task-conditioned evaluation. |
| Original and added PerformanceNet dimensions | PerformanceNet Taxonomy: 82 descriptive fields, with eight separate observer-impression scales. |
The following files join the generation schema, worked examples and reading legends listed above. They describe vocabularies and proposed mappings; they are not trained inference or reward models.

| voice-taxonomy.json | The verified 57-field primary codebook, including its short scales and actual anchor directions. |
| emotion-taxonomy.json | All 40 emotion/state labels and 320 intensity–expression cells. |
| situation-taxonomy.json | Original domains and scenarios, retained extensions, and explicitly proposed contextual facets. |
| situation-coverage.json | All 1,217 D/E/F records, proposed coordinates, evidence snippets, uncertainty and unresolved focal context. |
The website explorer drafts filtering, annotation or generation prompts from these definitions. A downloaded request records targets separately from any future annotation result. Neither the existence of a request nor a catalog entry demonstrates achieved dataset coverage.
