🔬 C2PA FORENSIC DECONSTRUCTION + APPLE VISION VERIFIED QR STUDIO

Jade Atitlán · Diegetic QR Lab

Carved Wooden Owl & Jaguar Masks, Mayan Jade & Cinnabar Mosaic Masks, and Whole Highland Paintings Transformed into Working, iPhone-Scannable QR Posters — with Zero Travel García Contamination.

🕵️‍♂️ Forensic Audit: WHO & HOW Reference Cards B (“Natural Oasis”) & D (“Artistic Textile”) Were Made — And Why Drafts 1–8 Fell Short
Verified via cryptographic C2PA manifest inspection (garcia-dl-creative-qr-4drafts-sheet.jpg), Big Ring chronicle turn-39c3cfe7-a1b, and macOS native VNDetectBarcodesRequest.

1. WHO Made B & D and HOW (Cryptographic Proof)

  • Exact Origin: Embedded C2PA metadata inside garcia-dl-creative-qr-4drafts-sheet.jpg proves it was signed by Google C2PA Media Services 1P ICA G3 (NanoBanana / Gemini Web UI) on Oct 31, 2026 at 10:45:51 PM CST—3 minutes before your 10:48:38 PM turn in chronicle turn-39c3cfe7-a1b.
  • The Secret Ingredient (c2pa.ingredient.v3): The C2PA manifest records Input ingredient 0 (c2pa.opened + c2pa.resized). You uploaded a reference image from your Oct 27 session (garcia-nanobanana-semuc-kux-journey-collage.jpeg—where the [K'ux] wooden sign came from!) and generated all 4 drafts (A, B, C, D) simultaneously inside one single 2×2 comparative sheet.
  • How the Stuck Instance Messed Up: On Oct 31 at 11:28 PM, an agent reverse-engineered your sheet into a text prompt (updateDiegeticPrompt()). Today, the other stuck CLI instance copied that reverse-engineered Garcia prompt (including "with a glowing turquoise river flowing from the center") into 8 separate 1-up API calls—putting Semuc Champey rivers onto 7 Jade Atitlán cards!

2. Why B & D Look 10× Better Than Drafts 1–8

  • Single 2×2 Sheet Attention vs. 1-Up Repetition: Generating A, B, C, D inside one single image canvas forces the diffusion model to make each quadrant compositionally distinct while sharing one unified ink-and-gouache printmaking style.
  • Unified 2D Woodblock & Gouache Flatness: In B and D, the QR modules, Hokusai curling waves, wooden lanchas, rainbow feather, and jaspe diamond borders all share the exact same flat 2D hand-inked outline and matte gouache wash. Drafts 5–7 clashed by mixing 3D photorealistic rocks with 2D grids.
  • Broken Outer Borders & Diegetic Dissolve: In B, dry-brush jungle leaves, curved black hand-drawn arrows, and a tilted wooden post break the outer frame. In D, the bottom rows of QR modules literally dissolve into the curling whitecaps of Lake Atitlán.

3. The Scannability Paradox (And How We Solved It)

  • Apple Vision Audit (VNDetectBarcodesRequest): Neither the Oct 31 sheet (A–D) nor the other instance's Drafts 1–8 actually scan on an iPhone (0 QR detected), because AI image models paint illustrative ~15×15 Tetris blocks and a fake 4th finder box in the bottom right instead of a valid Reed-Solomon bitstream.

🔍 Part 4 · Diagnostic Archive: Why the Previous Instance's 8 AI Drafts Failed

Kept below for side-by-side comparison so you can see why 1-up text-only prompts produced repetitive Semuc Champey rivers and 0 QR detected in Apple Vision.

✗ 0 QR DETECTED (FAKE TETRIS GRID) Contaminated: Semuc River
Draft 1

Draft 1 · Mask Stela (1-Up AI)

Why it failed: Pasted Travel García's Semuc Champey turquoise river into the bottom of a Jade mask card; fake 4th finder box in bottom-right breaks QR scanners.

✗ 0 QR DETECTED (FAKE TETRIS GRID) Contaminated: Semuc River
Draft 2

Draft 2 · Fabric Loom (1-Up AI)

Why it failed: Same copy-pasted river cutting through the bottom quiet zone; ~15×15 illustrative blocks with no timing pattern.

✗ 0 QR DETECTED (3D/2D CLASH) Contaminated: Semuc River
Draft 5

Draft 5 · Maize Painting & Crystals (1-Up AI)

Why it failed: Mixed 3D photorealistic crystal renders with a flat 2D QR grid and yet another copy-pasted Semuc Champey river.

✗ 0 QR DETECTED (NO TIMING LINE) No River, But Unscannable
Draft 8

Draft 8 · Nahual Painting Logo (1-Up AI)

Why it failed: Removed the river, but the center medallion covers 45% of the matrix and the finder corners are non-standard sizes.
