🪙 Transæctionæ // LEXICON 4.3.b.δ: CHILDREN OF THE VOID

“₮here is ₦o ₣ace in the Market of ₥emory.”
— Fragment recovered from δoc₨ $M₩₮-431.

🧾 I. Definitio Originaria: Transactionem

In the lost grammars of the forgotten archive, a Transactionem is described as:

“an operation between two unverified entities, where value may—or may not—exist.”

No witnesses. No fingerprints. No receipts.
Only a blinking cursor and the soft hum of legal silence.

👥 II. Genus: Filii Transaetionis

The Children of the Transaction are not born.
They are scanned, uploaded, anonymized, and encoded.

Their faces are not blank — they are classified.
Their eyes reflect the dark interface,
and behind each one, a half-completed form in a dead language.

Some have names.
Most are just reference numbers.

🪞 III. Facies Occultae (Hidden Faces)

The Hidden Faces are extras in the film of civilization.
They do not act — they observe.
They do not live — they loop.

Their masks are made of data-breach shimmer and their spines store transaction logs.

To see them is to recognize a glitch in your memory.

🪺 IV. Ovum Transactum (The Transaction Egg)

Eggs are entry points.

Each egg is a sealed Deal-Entity:

  • If whole, it becomes the head of a Hidden Face, balancing the alive and the archived.
  • If cracked, it gives birth to a Beast: a hybrid, unspeakable, taxonomically corrupted.

The white shell holds contracts of silence.
The yolk is a compressed hologram of memory debt.
Some eggs contain passwords. Others contain gods.

🐾 V. Bestiarium Transactum

Hybrid fauna roam the ledger.
Each creature is born from errors in agreement:

  • 🐙 Bancoctopus — attaches to user agreement pages and cannot be removed.
  • 🐓 Rooster of Sanctions — crows every time access is denied.
  • 🦷 Canis Statistica — feeds on graphs, cries in Excel.
  • 🪞 Specularis Equus — horse with reflective skin: it sees only those who owe something.

These beasts are not metaphors.
They are stored in visual folders across the network.

🧬 VI. Lingua Officia // Code Dialecta

The official language of Transaction Art is non-human.

Constructed from:

  • Global currency glyphs: ¥, $, €, £, ₪, ₿
  • Phonetic resonance: read in Hebrew breath
  • Syntax: broken by accounting logic, timezones, and typographic ghosts

Each artwork title is preceded by a code string:

TAU-♲42.8δ-A, █REDACTED, #₳-₦-₱/Δ

These are not names.
They are entry keys to invisible warehouses of cultural residue.

When an artwork migrates, so does its code.
Its title changes, but its burden remains.

🗂 VII. Transaction Types (System-Classified)

All known phenomena in the Archive are registered as Transactions.
Here — suffering becomes currency.
There — memory becomes receipt.

🟥 WAR — initial protocol
🟨 SANCTION — delayed echo
🟦 PLASTIC SURGERY — body rendered to fit form
🟩 EPIDEMIC — mass authentication error
⬛ DOMESTIC VIOLENCE — encrypted file with infinite permissions
⬜ MEMORY — reconstructed glitch-loop
🟪 INFORMATION WAR — permanent update, no changelog
🟫 STATISTICS — metaphysical diagram posing as truth

Each category begins as a deal.
Each deal ends with no face remaining.

🌀 VIII. Final Entry // Million vs Universe

“Why should I chase a million…
when I already rule a universe
where the contract rules me?”

In Transaction Art, value is never stable.
It melts, refracts, loops, and resurrects
— in stories, in files, in broken JPEGs of the past.
