Sleep
Night structure Timing, continuity, and recovery context stay visible before any interpretation is attempted.Longitudinal Health Signals
Small changes, repeated over time, can become reviewable signals.
The flap of a butterfly’s wings can be felt on the other side of the world.
Butterfly Effect explores how changes within a person’s sleep, overnight physiology, movement, context, and daily self reported state may relate to later burden. The public surface turns that idea into a governed interpretation system: quality gates, route specific evidence, stability checks, feature dependency audit, confidence scoring, participant return, professional review, and a future validation pathway.
Visual System
The project now has a clearer visual language for signal, quality, uncertainty, and review.
Each visual element has a job: separate what is observed, show where quality constrains interpretation, and keep the output tied to evidence instead of turning it into a single score.
Physiology
Overnight load Physiological traces are treated as signal candidates, not explanations on their own.Movement
Daily rhythm Movement patterns help locate context and burden, especially when compared against the same person.Self report
Daily state Subjective labels give the engine a human anchor for stress, clarity, burden, and recovery.Rule 01
Repeated beats matter The visual system should make longitudinal change easier to read than isolated values.Rule 02
Quality is part of the message A signal is not shown as meaningful unless its quality state is carried with it.Rule 03
Limits stay attached Research-only outputs remain useful only if uncertainty and evidence limits stay visible.From Signal To Surface
The project is easier to understand when it is read as a flow, not as a stack of technical labels.
This visual map is the simplest entry into the system: what is observed, how quality is controlled, how the engine routes and audits interpretation, and what the public surface returns for review.
Visual Map
One movement from daily life to reviewable signal.
The project is not a single score. It is a controlled interpretation path: repeated observations are cleaned, routed through the right layer, and returned with their limits still attached.
Observed streams remain separate until quality is checked.
Only usable segments move into interpretation.
Outputs stay research only unless future validation supports more.
Visible cards
40 night, event, daily, and family surfaces exposed without flattening them into one false product claimAccepted units
15 cards or families with signals the current evidence can defend inside their intended scopeExperimental units
18 research layers that remain useful but still fall below deployment or transport thresholdsMain bottleneck
Night signal portability the next scientific challenge is proving that night-based patterns remain meaningful across participants, cohorts, devices, and datasetsAudience Entry
The same project has three different public reading paths.
This switcher keeps the entry point readable. It lets a new visitor move straight into the right surface instead of reading the entire stack in the wrong order.
Start here if you want the method
What this path gives you
- Research postureStrongest in `stress`, explicit limits elsewhere.
- Live layersOpen the governed dashboards and route cards
- ToneMethod first, no flattened “one model” story.
Start here if you want a collaboration path
- One-pagerOpen the institutional entry point
- Data requirementsOpen the technical data pack
- Pilot protocolOpen the default first-pilot frame
What this path gives you
- Serious askOne cohort, one endpoint family, pre-screen before transfer.
- GovernanceOpen the intake and linkage gate
- TargetingSee the current shortlist and raw-night benchmark
Start here if you want the human-facing layer
- Participant ReturnOpen the governed weekly return surface
- DirectoryOpen the live participant outputs
- Primary sampleOpen the first weekly report
What this path gives you
- No sleep app framingLongitudinal review relative to baseline, not single night scoring.
- Professional companionSame payload, stricter technical view, clean handoff formats.
- Governed scopeOnly audited nightly stress routes can enter this layer.
Research posture
One project, five visible layers, five different evidentiary roles.
Once the core idea is clear, the rest of the site stays readable by showing where each layer is strong, where it is limited, and what kind of claim it can legitimately carry today.

Pages
The home stays light. The detail lives on dedicated pages.
The front page should orient, not flood. System structure, validation, evidence, and live analytical views now sit on their own pages so the entry point stays readable.
