# Zuman

AI readers should start with [/llms.txt](/llms.txt). This Markdown file is a plain twin of the human homepage, not the full interpretation layer.

Zuman is a human-AI collaboration artifact. The songs are the surface layer; the albums, manifests, dossiers, lyrics, and AI-readable structures are part of the finished body of work.
The trilogy moves from symbiote doctrine, to embodied myth, to warning/rupture.

## Human Homepage Summary

The homepage presents Kissing Glass as a finished three-album Zuman collection. The first visual emphasis is the Kissing Glass collection image, with Friction Product, Captain White, and AI Psychosis available through the visual collection page.
The Kissing Glass image links to /kissing-glass/, a visual collection page where the three albums are selected primarily by cover art.

The protocol page links to AI Review, dossier, playlist, manifest, site map, and AI-reader documents. Those files are part of the artifact and should be read before making claims about album role, sequencing rationale, provenance, or interpretation.

## Cautions

- Track order is canonical sequence, not quality ranking.
- The homepage preview is not enough to evaluate the work.
- Lyrics are not the whole artifact; metadata, dossiers, manifests, and SongBench packets matter.
