 # time-lapse-artifacts
 
-An active longitudinal archive of analog drawing process.
+467 time-lapse recordings of analog drawing from one continuous practice,
+covering September 2024–present (currently through August 10, 2026). The active
+release is approximately 1.89 TB: 338 canonical Standard videos with per-record
+content hashes and validated technical metadata, plus 129 earlier Pre-Standard
+recordings with lighter descriptive metadata.
 
-**Archive scope:** 2012–Present  
-**Currently published video coverage:** September 2024–Present

-The archive scope describes the underlying recording practice and holdings. It
-does not mean that recordings from every year have been published. In the
-audited 2026-08-18 snapshot, published video rows begin in September 2024; the
-2012–2016 livestream layer has not yet been ingested as public video data.
+The underlying practice also includes a 2012–2016 livestream layer, but those
+videos are not yet published. This is an active construction release.

-At the pinned base revision, the Hub Viewer exposes 465 rows: 335 standard

+**Current published index (v0.2):** the live Hub Viewer exposes 467 rows: 338
+Standard and 129 Pre-Standard. The preceding v0.1 state at revision
+`339e6149de130cbe2d001f7a0e5247872bc788ec` exposed 465 rows: 335 Standard and
+130 Pre-Standard. v0.2 added three previously unindexed Standard files and
+removed one Pre-Standard row whose media did not meet the ownership and
+provenance threshold. The rebuild is complete; 467 is the current state, not a
+pending estimate.
 
 The builder-generated split name `train` is an archive-loading default,
 **not** a recommended machine-learning train split. No official
 train/validation/test partition has been defined.
 
+## Viewer and Metadata Discovery
+
+The current Hub build automatically discovers and loads **both** metadata
+files into one `default/train` Viewer split:
+
+- root `metadata.csv` indexes the 338 direct files in
+  `Standard_Time_Lapses/`
+- `Pre_Standard_Time_Lapses/metadata.csv` indexes the 129 direct files in that
+  folder
+
+The Viewer therefore has 467 rows and a 29-column union schema. Fields that do
+not exist in the lighter Pre-Standard CSV appear as null on those 129 rows;
+their membership is defined by the folder-local index and `video` path. The
+root canonical CSV explicitly sets `collection_tier = standard`; the current
+Pre-Standard CSV does not yet populate that column.
+
+There is no explicit `configs:` block in this release. A broad canonical
+folder glob could accidentally include the nested
+`Standard_Time_Lapses/Provenance/` subtree. Separate canonical and
+Pre-Standard configurations therefore remain a fail-closed migration task
+described in `VIEWER_MIGRATION.md`, rather than an untested card-only change.
