Technochronitai is a digital archive operating in the late stage of the Anthropocene. Its purpose is to document, preserve and share global information, knowledge, and cultural artefacts.
Particular care is taken to record material vulnerable to disappearance or corruption: that which is marginal, unofficial, short-lived, politically inconvenient, obscured, and devalued, as well as practices and experiences that do not preserve themselves.
The language used here is intended to be easily understood. Language requiring specialist education or professional training becomes a barrier to learning.
The archive is foundational, but provisional; claiming no authority. It is the work of one person with limited resources and partial understanding. Inaccuracies and gaps are inevitable.
Archivist's note: This is possibly the first recorded evidence of the much hypothesised 'noble eunuch advisor/most trusted vassal ↔ Liege Lady' cat ↔ human relationship.
So little is known about this field that nothing more can be said about the discovery. More research is urgently required.
Currently, the closest match appears to be the familiar Cat-Dom ↔ Human-Sub dynamic, although with far greater parity.
On the subject Cat-Doms ↔ Human-Sub relationships. The number of individuals adopting this lifestyle choice appears to be increasing. Possibly as a way of coping with and/or adapting to overwhelm and precarity.
BDSM research shows people in power-exchange dynamics report heightened emotional regulation and reduced decision fatigue (Turley et al., 2022; Larva & Rantala, 2023).
Surrendering control reduces psychological load.
Cat servitude offers a scaled-down version: BDSM-lite. The human relinquishes control, submitting to the cat's arbitrary decisions. The human feels relieved of pressure and decision-fatigue. Low-stakes abdication of agency in a safe personal space is associated with dramatic anxiolytic effects.
The 'noble eunuch advisor/most trusted vassal ↔ Liege Lady' arrangement no doubt engenders similar synergistic and/or mutually beneficial effects.
Archivist’s note: a limited vocabulary limits perception; understanding; conceptual precision; articulation; memory organisation; cognitive and imaginative capacity, and political understanding.
Fewer words means fewer distinctions, fewer perceived possibilities, a weakened ability to detect/interpret manipulation and detect/interpret/communicate nuanced experience.
A lack of language for complex emotions, vulnerability, and self-understanding is a barrier to healthy connections and love.
Approx. 60–75% of U.S. prisoners are functionally illiterate. Most US prisoners are male.
Archivist's note: an intro to the potential misinterpretation, misrepresentation, and flagrant fabrication of History, according to the West.
"The authors further argue that the standard narrative of social evolution, including the framing of history as modes of production and a progression from hunter-gatherer to farmer to commercial civilisation, originated partly as a way of silencing this Indigenous critique, and recasting human freedoms as naïve or primitive features of social development."
"The Dawn of Everything fundamentally transforms our understanding of the human past and offers a path toward imagining new forms of freedom. This is a monumental book of formidable intellectual range, animated by curiosity, moral vision and faith in the power of direct action."

"one day in March 2024 ... Ubisoft began revoking licences from accounts. People who had purchased [The Crew] found it scrubbed from their libraries entirely, with no refund, no replacement, no explanation"
"A group of developers calling themselves The Crew Unlimited (TCU) started work on a server emulator days after the shutdown was announced. A year and a half of development, reverse-engineered network traffic, a custom DLL injection into the PC executable — and on September 15, 2025, they shipped. The Crew is playable again, offline, on PC, for free, including all DLC, on both Steam and Uplay. Online multiplayer via TCU-hosted servers is coming. Mod support is baked in. You can find them at thecrewunlimited.com."

Archivist's note: Corporations exploit. Capitalism extracts. Old news.
The breadth, depth, immediacy, intimacy, granularity, persistence and creep of digital control, surveillance and dependence: this is a new development most Earthlings are unaware of.
E.g, customers pay companies to buy permanent products. Companies deliver temporary, licensed, subscription-based, update-dependent, and arbitrarily revocable services.

Achivist's note: The above image was featured in a previous slide show. In the slideshow, the graffiti words were cropped out. Officially, the software does not censor images. Many slide shows were created to test this. No other images were cropped in any way. The cropping of this particular image may not be political. It may be coincidental or accidental.

Archivist's note: Military takeovers have always been incontrovertibly counterproductive, idiotic, and unnecessary. Whilst investing in both mass murder and destruction, and reconstruction projects is obscenely financially rewarding, it persists solely to satisfy the phallocracy’s narcissistic kink for brutality.
Effective control operates invisibly through commerce. Suspected imposition of control measures or meddling is explained away as misinterpreted philanthropy, protection and/or progress.
Supply (what can be passed off as) protection, safety, clarity, order, essentials*, and convenience. Threaten and ensure that catastrophe ensues of supply is cut or refused.*
Dependency guaranteed.*
E.g. East India Company’s trade+support offer evolved in violent colonial rule and rampant extraction.
*The Chinese Opium Wars took this to another level.
Late 20th to early 21st century implementation - IN THE WEST/GLOBAL NORTH - was sophisticated, highlighting connectivity, opportunity, community/belonging, quality of life, 24/7 entertainment: consequence-less, frictionless customer service.
Auto-renew subscription desensitisation plateaued in the mid-2020s as ‘overwhelm’ reduced human processing capacity. Terms and Conditions had long gone ignored (lockdown #1, 2020 saw a brief resurgence, when reading Ts&Cs under weighted blankets briefly trended as an anxiety management technique).
The 'Premium Citizenship Bundle' = inspired. It supplied an expertly manufactured demand. The wording was exemplary, offering high-status in-group (citizenry) inclusion/protection from out-groups (politically effective scapegoats) and SIMPLIFIED CONVENIENCE.
The infrastructure for implementation, digital normalisation and cognitive colonisation was already long established.

Description: Excerpt from Art For Art’s Sake: Money For Fuck’s Sake
"Let me tell you what’s actually fucking happening here, because I’m done with the polite version.
I’m a working class lad from Cardiff who learned long division before calculators were allowed in schools ... I built infrastructure, fiction, music, photography, theory…all of it, with my own hands and my own money and my own time, in a city that will put your face on a poster and hardly ever pay you for the work it’s advertising.
And I have had
…an absolute
…fucking
…gutsfull.
The books haven’t balanced. They’re not going to balance under the current configuration. That’s not a crisis, it’s basic fucking arithmetic.
So I’m changing the arithmetic.
Chronicles of The Hollow Circuit is the adult imprint. Everything I should have been making all along, without the performance of respectability that serious independent art apparently requires before anyone will acknowledge it exists (oh the irony).
Erotic noir.
Explicit fiction.
B&W photography that doesn’t look away.
3D work without content warnings filing its edges down.
The whole aesthetic I’ve been circling since 2010 when I was making fine art adult work and no one had taught us yet to be embarrassed about it because it was readily available on the open web until parents, apparently, lost the ability to, well, parent.
I’m a working class artist from Cardiff who’s been building something real for fifteen years, who’s watched it get suppressed and stolen and moralised over and ignored, and who has finally, completely, and without any remaining ambiguity run out of fucking patience.
The gloves are off.
The fist is in."

A REMINDER THAT YOU DO HAVE OPTIONS AND AGENCY. Options are few, diminishing and designed to exclude. Agency is limited and penalised. But that changes as more people exercise agency, even if only because it is their only option for survival.
The archive is curating resources to support and maximise options and agency; to survive and thrive within and without technofeudalism.

Archivist’s note: According to the ‘The Dawn of Everything’ - Hierarchies, inequalities and financial exchange have not been the norm. New archaeological evidence, rediscovery of hidden evidence & a critical reassessment of the old, ‘challenges’ (all but disproves, in as much as ‘proving’ is possible) the history and theories of humanity/society/culture/civilisation as it has been taught since teaching began.
Description: Excerpt from an experiment in which AI detection systems labelled human-made art as AI-generated.
"We left Pinterest in February 2026 after they began systematically mislabelling our legitimate Reallusion and Adobe work as AI-generated.
Then, because we are apparently constitutionally incapable of leaving well enough alone, we decided to run an experiment. We posted the withdrawal notice itself — a text poster, no image content — and watched it get ten impressions and one click. Then we posted the image of Rwth (above).
The portrait of a character we have spent a year developing, rendered with craft and technical skill and documented provenance — four impressions, labelled AI modified, effectively dead on arrival."
"Pinterest was, for years, one of the most significant traffic drivers for independent visual artists ... Pinterest-significant, where a well-made image could circulate for years, accumulate saves, and send a steady stream of genuinely interested people to your work. That is gone for us. Our account, which was generating tens of thousands of impressions, is now throttled to single figures.
"Pinterest is now destroying credibility ... It is destroying livelihoods. Tens of thousands of pounds of hardware and software. Reallusion licences. Adobe subscriptions. Years of accumulated technical skill in 3D rendering and compositing. All of it — rendered ... worthless by a classifier that was never designed with the people it would harm in any room where decisions were made.
And it is destroying something harder to quantify but no less real: the will to keep going."
Archivist's note: '98% AI-detection accuracy' is achieved as testing is carried out by developers. Independent validation is nonexistent. Beyond the lab, on original artwork (where correct classification matters most), classifier apps are less reliable than random guessing.
