Anthology matrix: assigned relationships and tension scores

Read the explanation

This saved anthology workbench contains twelve nodes: four cast labels, four character archetypes and four subgenres. Thirteen assigned edges connect those labels, shown at forty display pixels per counted item. The graph is authored concept data, not verified casting news or evidence of a future season. Genre buttons fade unrelated elements and highlight matching edges, their connected nodes, and the genre node. Filtering changes emphasis rather than removing the canonical graph. Edge weight influences drawing but is not a measured relationship strength. The source initializes Cytoscape before attaching its controls; without that external dependency, the initialization fails and later controls remain unbound. This offline narration explains saved source intent, not a claim that the dependency-blocked application executed successfully. Synergy starts from one hundred minus point one five times tension. A pair name containing Bassett adds twelve; other pairs add five. The result is rounded and clipped between sixty and ninety-nine. At tension seventy-five, the Bassett formula gives one hundred point seven five before rounding and clipping, so the displayed score is ninety-nine. A different pair gives ninety-three point seven five, which rounds to ninety-four. Both bars share five pixels per assigned score point. These are design coefficients, not audience research or measured acting chemistry. Tension index simply divides the slider by one hundred. Density is point five five plus point zero zero two times tension, rounded to two decimal places; it does not count graph connections. Running the simulation applies a force-directed layout with node repulsion six thousand plus forty times tension. Zero and one hundred therefore give six thousand and ten thousand, shown on a shared scale of one pixel per twenty repulsion units. Ideal edge length moves the opposite way, from one hundred ten to sixty. Layout settings rearrange the same authored graph and do not infer new story relationships. Resonance is subdued below thirty, high above sixty, critical above eighty, and balanced otherwise. Reset restores tension seventy-five and the first pair, clears highlighting, and requests layouts twice. Export copies current displayed cast, archetype, pair and metrics into JSON with a timestamp; it does not export the complete graph. These explanations require separate native control, responsive layout and playback evidence before the new embed can be treated as approved.
