A proposed foundation for independent artists, fair recognition and accountable teaching. This draft is for review. It does not enact a new agreement or award a grade.
Excellence through mastery. Honour through conduct. Legacy through service. The House cultivates performance, musicianship, independent artistic identity and useful professional relationships. Honour, freely chosen loyalty, mastery, fraternity and legacy guide the work. Elite means earned excellence; disagreement is compatible with belonging.
The current pilot is for consenting adults aged 18 or over. Readiness is considered through experience, artistic understanding and purpose. Guild recognition, professional credentials, educational completion and paid service access are separate. Paying, donating, investing or agreeing with a political view must not buy advancement. No government accreditation is claimed.
Neophyte — entry and potential. Initiate — commitment and belonging. Adept — proficiency and advancement. Master — recognised excellence. Grandmaster — distinguished mastery and stewardship. These are the v3 framework, not evidence that anyone has received an assessed award. Existing self-declared public task milestones are legacy practice records, not peer-reviewed recognition. A versioned transition, discipline-specific rubric, peer review and appeals process must be established before formal recognition is offered.
President, Director, Treasurer, Secretary, Instructor, Assessor, Mentor, Moderator and Technical Administrator describe assigned functions with specific permissions. A grade does not grant corporate control or administrator access. Current software authorises owner operations separately; no governing entity or officers are asserted by this draft.
Artists retain creative authority. Enrolment, lesson submission and use of tools do not transfer creative rights. Permission is required to use another person’s performance, material or identity. Credit collaborators and material assistance honestly. Any future publishing, representation or rights assignment needs a separate agreement and explicit authority.
Teaching should state prerequisites, outcomes, practice expectations and completion criteria. Feedback should be specific, useful and respectful of genre and artistic intent. Ask for clarification, corrections or reassessment. An instructor must disclose a conflict of interest and arrange an appropriate alternative reviewer when needed. Educational completion is not a guild grade.
Keep commitments, communicate changes and offer rigorous criticism without harassment or humiliation. No hazing, coercion, discriminatory treatment, intimidation or compulsory political participation is acceptable. Members may decline political debate, question a teaching, maintain outside relationships and leave voluntarily. Personal support and opportunity must not depend on loyalty or a commercial purchase.
Members are free to speak, create, express ideas and choose their affiliations through lawful, peaceful activity. Agreement with the founder, a movement or another member is not a condition of belonging. You may decline debate, refuse an association, disagree or leave.
These freedoms do not ensure freedom from their consequences. Work and ideas may be criticised; others may choose not to collaborate. Breaches of the published conduct rules may lead to proportionate moderation or a standing review, with reasons and an opportunity to respond. Freedom is not a promise of endorsement, an audience or immunity from accountability.
The federation is an artistic community, not an organisation for destruction or violence. Threats, harassment, doxxing, advocacy of genocide or violence, violent extremist recruitment and coordinated harm are outside its purpose. These boundaries apply consistently; disagreement alone is not misconduct, and consequences never justify intimidation or retaliation.
Collect only what is needed for a stated service. Learning reflections are private to the learner and authorised teaching operator. AI processing requires an appropriate separate choice; AI is not a substitute for human artistic judgement, clinical evaluation or legal authority. Future agents must have bounded permissions and human approval for consequential actions. Read the current data policy for implemented collection and controls.
Use the private contact channel to raise a concern or request a correction. Acknowledge the issue, record reasons and seek a reviewer without a relevant conflict. No retaliation for a good-faith complaint. A full independent appeal process, response standards and responsible officers remain to be established; this draft does not pretend they already operate. In the current pilot the owner receives enquiries, so independent review is a readiness requirement.
The current adult pilot does not enrol minors. Any younger-learner programme requires a separate safeguarding framework and qualified oversight. Fees and service terms must be clear before commitment. Guild dues are not investment contributions; no pooled investment offering is authorised here. Leadership must explain decisions, declare conflicts and remain accountable to the published rules.
This is Charter draft 0.2, dated 13 November 2026, based on Master Development Amendment v3.0. It is proposed governance, not a binding membership contract or claim of an established legal entity. Material changes require a visible version and appropriate notice. Members may leave; cancellation, privacy requests and any separate service agreement are handled through their own processes.
