Mesh + Mycelium: The Living Substrate
Working with an AI, the model reaches but does not durably hold your work. A living substrate is the owned ground that does both: a mesh that holds (an indexed, linked record) and a mycelium that reaches (a meaning-search that runs on its own). Drawn from how fungal and neural networks build by reaching and holding at once, it argues the ground must be alive because we live in time.
