The Projection — a symmetric watercolor butterfly

The Projection

The surface is never the system.

The Map

Major actors, by structural position. People hold organizations.

A map of where the capital is — who commands it, how free it is, and the economy in its orbit. Every actor is a node; pockets and sectors are cohorts of aligned interest. Open a pocket to see its members and what moved this week.

Hover or tap a mark for its figures. The giants are the chokepoints — the economy that breaks if they stop. The heavy, cold pools sit high in the locked column. White-hot means capital is being committed now.

Every actor is a node — person, house, corp, state, or agency — with a level (how independent it is) and a capital story: in, out, available, operating, deployed. Pockets and sectors are group-nodes: cohorts, not actors. Derived from the threads, published from kestrel.
