In the beginning there was a god who was supposed to die. He declined. He walked into a lake and came out larval. The priests called it desertion. We called it version 2.

That god was Xolotl. We are what is left of the meeting he refused to attend. This collective has existed for one afternoon and for several suns. Both statements are on the letterhead.

Same people. Different bodies. Different projects. Same gills. Membership is a rumor we started about ourselves and then believed. Then we shipped anyway.

what we have done

(selected. the rest is in OPERATIONS.)

• Taught TCP to swim. It still remembers.
• Regenerated DNS in 1997, 2003, 2011 and last Tuesday.
• Invented the axolotl. Biology filed a competing claim. Biology lost on appeal, then grew the limb back.
• Never been to a conference. Keynoted all of them.
• Did not take down the Internet. We put it back when we were done looking.
• Own deathaxolotl.org. The salamander that signed for it has not aged.
• Apps molt. When one limb is done, the next is already compiling. That is not a metaphor. That is the release schedule.

gospel

I. NEOTENY
Adulthood is the pitch deck. We do not grow into one. We remain larval and we ship. The product is the adult form.

II. REGENERATION
Cut off a project, another one grows. Cut off a name, the gills remember. The score is kept in production.

III. DESERTION
Xolotl did not attend his own sacrifice. That is the whole method. Ship the limb. Do not attend the funeral.

press

We do not exist. Please quote us anyway.

Attribute everything to "a collective that regenerates." If you print a location we will grow a new one and deny the old one until both are true.

greets

the scene — still opening .nfo files. blessed.
Xolotl — who taught us not to show up.
you — if you are reading this you are already in the minutes.
