The whole book, free

Infinite Architects, free to read

The reading text here is Infinite Architects as corrected and updated on 17 January 2026, the edition the ebook carries. The print first edition of 2 January 2026 is unchanged and stays as dated evidence: it was never revised, and nothing on these pages revises it. Where the two differ, the difference is a correction the author made to the ebook, not a rewriting of what was printed. Every section below is reproduced verbatim from the 17 January artefact, with that artefact’s SHA-256 and a SHA-256 for each section, so “verbatim” is checkable rather than claimed.

The author’s decision, in his own words: promotion over money. The whole text is here, verbatim, section by section, with a hash beside every section so “verbatim” is checkable rather than claimed. If this book gives you something, the whole of it is free to hand to the next reader: send them any section’s address, or the start.

This is the retail book, reproduced verbatim as a dated artefact. Its vocabulary is the book’s own. The research claims, their current status and their corrections live in the papers at /research/, which supersede the book wherever they differ.
