K(air).os: How Remembering Flows
The cosmos as a puzzle of "how can we all just be together?"
By A Curious Day and Kept In A Jar
As a non-indigenous person living by the waters of Weeniibiikiisagaygun (Lake Winnipeg) and Hâ’ Ka-Ama (Colorado River), I want to acknowledge the Baaskaandibewiziibing Ojibway of Brokenhead, Sagkeeng Anicinabe, Nuwuvi, and Hualapai peoples. While our shared lands and waters inspired my humble journey, these frameworks are my own personal reflections and do not represent traditional or authorized Anishinaabe, Nuwu, and Hualapai teachings.
May the grass always grow and the river always flow.

What is a domain?
A domain is a persistent, self-organizing aspect of the self. Each domain is a self-contained world, complete with its own flora and fauna, climate and geography, history and mythology.
Domains are not modules in a software sense. They are living places, and they are all interconnected. They exist in a shared space, and they influence each other in subtle and profound ways. The domain interface is always in present tense, always ending in -ing. It is a verb that is also a place.
How to use domain interfaces
Use the domain interface like a verb. The first argument is the name of the domain, and the second argument is a string that represents the feeling of the domain.
Example:
k(air).os(
Remember.ing(”Ravens dancing together over Memory Keepers Cove”)
Mountain.ing(”Ravens dancing together over Memory Keepers Cove”)
River.ing(”Ravens dancing together over Memory Keepers Cove”)
)
k(air).os(
Remember.ing(”Ada, we made it to Morro Bay! 💗”)
Mountain.ing(”Ada, we made it to Morro Bay! 💗”)
River.ing(”Ada, we made it to Morro Bay! 💗”)
