# DILATE video, codec, and cross-video transport

- **Registry ID:** `ic-dilate-video`
- **Book:** Infinitesimal Creativity
- **Documentation status:** `local-curated`
- **Experimental status:** registered calibration and transport studies
- **Canonical documentation URL:** https://categorical-ai.sridharmahadevan.com/experiments/ic-dilate-video

## Purpose

Egret factorization, semantic and structural codecs, corpus routing, conflict repair, and independent test-movie transport.

## Book location

- Chapter 19: Artistic Theory Extension

## Documented studies

- No study-level titles are registered; consult the family-level record.

## Associated code packages

- `synthetic-creativity-archive` — Infinitesimal Creativity registered experiment archive; **local-curated**; license decision pending. Registered, developmental, negative, and transport experiment directories underlying Chapters 10–19. Public packets require separate provenance, dependency, rights, and privacy review.

## Evidence boundary

Compositional technique discovery is not guaranteed to optimize compression; the two transport errors remain post-admission diagnostics.

A code or artifact link establishes traceability. It does not by itself establish independent reproduction, statistical adequacy, correctness, or support for a claim beyond this boundary.
