Canonical framework
Human Experience Architecture™
The primary public authority for the governed cybernetic architecture of human adaptive experience created by Erik Bakker.
Explore HEAHEA ecosystem
One architecture. Distinct public roles.
Human Experience Architecture™ is the canonical cybernetic architecture of human adaptive experience. The wider ecosystem applies, reflects on and explores from that foundation without collapsing the authority boundaries between its public surfaces.

Applied-domain architecture
Human X Architecture™
Human X Architecture™ applies Human Experience Architecture to specific domains of life, practice and design. The X represents the domain being examined through the HEA lens.

Architecture of Experience
An independent publication and inquiry surface for wider essays and open questions across consciousness, technology, environments, art, culture and adjacent models. The name is used descriptively as a publication surface, not as a claimed HEA framework, parent discipline or proprietary theory.

HEA.AI
A bounded reflective interface to Human Experience Architecture™. It does not diagnose, profile or replace the canonical framework.

HxA.AI
A bounded applied reasoning interface for Human X Architecture™, with authority limited to professional and integration contexts.

Erik Bakker
The person identity behind Human Experience Architecture™, Human X Architecture™ and the wider essays and creative work. Erik's identity is broader than any one framework.

HEA Interpretations
Explain through the HEA lens.
When the purpose is to make Human Experience Architecture™ clearer by interpreting a lived pattern, framework or tradition through HEA, the article belongs on this site.
Explore HEA InterpretationsHuman X Architecture™
Apply HEA to a domain.
When the purpose is to understand, design or develop a specific domain through Human Experience Architecture, the work belongs on Human X. The X represents that domain, from health, money, relationships and work to technology, organizations, physical environments and other applied fields. Applied books outside the canonical HEA Doctrine series belong here.

Explore the wider question.
When the inquiry is broader than HEA or Human X Architecture™, such as consciousness, technology, culture, art or adjacent models, Architecture of Experience is the independent publication surface. It does not define or extend HEA doctrine.

The foundation points outward. The other surfaces do not redefine it.
HEA models the human adaptive system. Human X Architecture™ applies that architecture to specific domains. The AI interfaces remain bounded to their stated roles. Architecture of Experience is an independent publication and inquiry surface, not a parent theory or HEA doctrine surface.
