Provenance and boundaries
The Zizkian was developed by Maciej Jankowski with AI assistance through a discussion of ideology critique, consulting/coaching question libraries and the critic’s own incentives. A separate satirical lighting piece prompted comparisons about how selected assumptions acquire administrative authority; that satire is not part of this release’s public consulting material.
The project name is coined. Žižekian describes inspiration. No method, quotation,
endorsement or theory in this package is attributed to Slavoj Žižek as his work.
WWZS? is an invitation to generate a tentative challenge, not impersonation.
The falsification question predates the package and is preserved from earlier
project conversations.
The initial conceptual matrix was challenged during cross-model critique: untrained attention numbers can give authored choices the appearance of mathematical authority. Removing numbers does not remove lens-selection bias. The present implementation therefore checks explicit reasoning records and does not apply that matrix to a recommendation.
Formal claims are limited to the executable records and rules supplied here. All fixtures, user statements and observations in examples are fictional. There are no model-training claims, empirical performance figures, fabricated research citations or client endorsements.
