comodiddies/ #

comedy × commodity × diddy × play. sci-fi products that don't exist but should — each one shipped with a completely straight face: a typeset product sheet, a sung-or-spoken story video, an AC piece, a campaign. the joke is that nothing is a joke.

a separate marketing pipeline that lifts off the original /marketing stack, the same way /pop lifted the songs off it — marketing/ keeps the one-off campaigns and shared bins (gen-promo.mjs etc.); a comodiddy is a numbered product with its own lane here.

  <slug>/                  # one lane per product
    product/               # the faux sheet: README (concept), sheet.tex → sheet.pdf
    gens/                  # campaign image gens (colored-pencil house style)
    story/                 # the story video: vo + build.mjs + chrome.mjs + motion/
    *-prompt.txt           # gen prompts
  • product sheet — AC house style (YWFT Processing + Berkeley Mono + pals stamps, same language as bills/invoices/); build with tectonic -X compile sheet.tex from product/
  • story video — VO-aligned cut (story/build.mjs), Seedance 2.0 motion shots via the pop/lib/motion-pipeline.mjs harness (story/gen-motion.mjs driver), side-stamp chrome pass
  • AC piece — <slug>.mjs in the disks dir links the product sheet from the prompt
  • prose follows papers/VOICE.md — lowercase, fragments, em-dashes; concept docs read like notebook pages, not spec sheets
