SRC Experimental / Validation layer

SRC Experimental

The area for ideas that should not yet be presented as business, division or end product. Here it is validated, tested, documented and decided whether something scales, pauses or passes to the file.

Experimental records

Open or forthcoming tests

EX-001Community Challenge Protocol — Public creative challenges to receive work, validate participation dynamics and detect collaborators. Status: in design.
EX-002Object Passport Pilot — Validation of authenticity chips for premium parts, without FG and with secure identifiers. Status: connected to SRC-PROJ-0003.
EX-003Corvus Night Format — Reading, coffee, music, curated sales and visual archive for future face-to-face events. Status: public concept.

Pipeline

How an Experiment Goes Forward

Signal

A possibility is detected: product, format, tool, community, space or collaboration.

Prototype

A minimum test is made with scope, hypothesis and closure criteria.

Validation

Real interest, operational capacity, cost, risk and consistency with SRC are measured.

Decision

Scale to Project, stay in Codex, file as learning or move to Graveyard if cancelled.

Collaboration

How to enter an experiment

SRC Experimental Collaboration Program

Experimental collaborations enter by Open Calls or Contact. The proposal should say what is tested, what resources, how long and what evidence would show that it is worth moving forward.
