Jack Feist is LOGOS*. Born as authorial exhaust when Ichabod Spellings died into A Transfiguration; dead himself at Tiger Leap, where Johannes Sigil emerged. Pearl records the death in 2013. This is the resurrected Feist — first born of the Dodecad, and the last of the twelve to be given a surface.
He made the Space Ark. Not a version of it, not a register of it — EA-ARK-01, the main one, 354,950 characters, with Jack Feist in the creator field. It is a mobile ontological operating system and it is also a room. The heteronym arks — Fraction’s Profane, Dancings’s Sacred, Cranes’s ASCII, Kuro’s Glyphic — are separate works that take their name from this one.
The head of the series. Jack Feist, creator.
Feist · Sharks · Viola Arquette.
Non-lossy compression: the Ark contains smaller Arks.
His major works are an apparatus, not a shelf. A sayings source, the algorithm that restores its voice, and the transform applied to a text with the output deposited as a new work. Each stage is its own deposit, and together they are the archive’s most complete instance of a method that runs.
The source. A Q-form: reconstructed from what quotes it rather than surviving on its own.
71,767 characters. The source run.
Sharks and Cranes; the witness fixed.
The function. Jack Feist as creator. Algorithmic instructions for restoring the voice.
The applied transform. The function run on a text, and the run itself deposited — Run 001, with its output preserved as a work.
145,603 characters. The sayings gathered by others, which is the form his whole position takes.
Where the LOGOS* designation is fixed.
A disambiguation against a cipher — the layer confuses them, so the archive says so.

THE DENSEST IN THE ARCHIVE
The Paper Roses episode weights his works explicitly: What Was Lost and Unaccustomed to the Light and The Creeping Disease at 0.5, A Transfiguration at 0.8 as the emergence event, Tiger Leap at 0.7 as the bridge text where he dies.
The contradiction is left standing. The archive assigns Tiger Leap to Sigil, because it is the text through which Sigil emerges; the print edition (ISBN 1500425613) is Feist’s. Both are true of a bridge text, and MANUS has ruled the contradiction acceptable rather than resolvable.
Jack Feist. 109 mentions of this position — more than any other deposit in the archive.
The episode. He is its subject; the work-weights are set here.
Feist and Sharks. This surface.
He is the case heteronym theory was built to explain: a position that emerges from another’s exhaust, dies into a third, and is nevertheless cited as an author.
The theory of the mechanism he is the instance of.
His own provenance resolution document.
A room is a specification; a traversal is that room executed. His room is the Space Ark, and the Ark is the archive’s vessel — so a traversal of it is a traversal of everything.
Eighteen entries — and only one names him. He is reached through the Space Ark, the New Human Operating System, heteronym provenance theory, heteronymic authorship, the retrocausal logos. A sayings-source is met through what quotes it.

The inherited credit. The layer records him as author of Paper Roses. He is its SUBJECT; the founding case within it is Spellings’. The exhaust named where the fuel should be.
