From Genre Crossing to Architectonic Genre Synthesis: Formalizing a 1,937-Form Corpus Through a Mendel-Inspired Experimental Model

This publication introduces Architectonic Genre Synthesis (AGS), a formal method for examining genre as a transformable narrative architecture rather than solely as a classificatory label. Using a Mendel-inspired crossing model, the study analyzes how inherited genre functions behave when systematically combined, recursively recombined, assigned differentiated roles, and transformed through three author-developed architectonic systems: Mythotechnic Fiction, Meta-Mythic Delphic Fiction, and Ontological Systems Fiction. The research documents the Martinez Architectonic Genre Corpus (MAGC), consisting of 1,937 cataloged Architectonic Genre Forms organized across 149 crossing segments. The corpus includes a 689-form developmental phase and a stabilized 1,248-form matrix composed of 96 segments. Analysis identifies role-differentiated recurrence, operator stacking, scale escalation, surface-label convergence, and taxonomic reorganization as major structural behaviors. The Complete Research Edition includes the full research paper followed by the complete MAG-0001 through MAG-1937 Architectonic Genre Compendium, providing the defining attributes, structural logic, authority architecture, symbolic materiality, ontological behavior, and characteristic expressions of each cataloged form.
