Photography is the third generative output of the system. Unlike music (continuous) and visuals (continuous), photography is discrete: the system captures moments. The design goal is to make the photographer invisible. The dancer moves; stills appear without anyone pressing a button. The iPhones are the cameras; the iPad is the control console. Each iPhone in the system is a self-contained camera node. It: - Serves a live MJPEG stream at `:8081/stream` (30fps) - Handles `POST /capture` to take a still photo (AVCapturePhotoOutput) - Runs its own interval timer (2/3/5/8 second automatic capture) - Advertises itself on Bonjour as `_mmcam._tcp` - Sends SSE events (`GET /events`) for `still_captured`, `session_changed`, `status` The iPhone can operate as a camera node while simultaneously running the full SAN/audio pipeline (primary performance device) or in camera-only mode (no SAN, no audio — just the camera service). StageView is an iPad app that discovers all camera nodes and gives the operator a unified view of the entire camera rig.

Why this is not always a full paper yet

Corpus pages are public-safe readers for discovered workspace artifacts. They are not automatically final papers. A corpus item becomes a polished paper only after the editable source, evidence checkpoints, references, figures, render path, and release status are attached through the paper schema.
