📥 DownloadThe Civilizational Relay Framework
These 13 relays represent the continuous transfer of knowledge, energy, and intent across 12,000 years of human civilization. Each relay builds upon the previous one, creating an unbroken chain from the mastery of fire to the infinite loop of the Torus. Together, they form the complete narrative of humanity's journey from Calories to Consciousness.
