The Archive
A human-curated record of knowledge preserved with intent in the age of artificial intelligence.
Established 2025
What this is
The Archive exists because modern knowledge is abundant, but meaning is scarce.
Artificial intelligence can collect, compress, and generate information at unprecedented scale. What it cannot do is decide what is worth keeping.
Each Archive Entry is chosen deliberately.
Each is written to be revisited, not skimmed.
Each becomes part of a growing record of understanding meant to compound over time.
This is not a feed.
This is not news.
Nothing enters The Archive by accident.

The Baroque Cycle and Information Density
Why it matters:
The way early modern thinkers navigated dense, rapidly expanding information systems offers a useful lens for understanding how humans must now adapt to AI-accelerated knowledge compression.
Principles
Knowledge should reward rereading.
Knowledge should remain useful years from now.
Knowledge is chosen, not consumed.
Preservation is an act of intent.
The Archive grows slowly by design.
