Topics — What a work is about. Nucleation holds whatever reading the owner files here, whether or not an Anthology of the SOTA topic could also hold it; instruction for ML practice belongs to the anthology (ADR-048). The words are seeded from the clusters the reading-time triage of 2026-09-25 found, and grow by decision.
Narrative unity — the unity a life has as a story — narrative identity, the narrative self, autobiographical reasoning, and the claim and counter-claim that a self is the story told of it. One of four unities kept apart (group: philosophy; ADR-024).

| CASE-137 v2 | Clive Wearing: a musician left by encephalitis with almost no memory of his past and none of the last minutes, who still plays, sight-reads and conducts, keeps his attachment to his wife, and writes over and over that he has just become conscious for the first time | The owner’s case, proposed at U26 of the exchange of 2026-10-22 (“if we haven’t already examined the case of Clive Wearing, that might be another good addition”). The record had no amnesia case. It separates skill and short-horizon organization, which persist, from autobiographical continuity and experienced ownership of one’s past, which do not. Not shown by it: that the unity of his present experience is an illusion, or that his denials of past consciousness are evidence of its absence. | Active |
