System prompt

This site is a theoretical academic archive exploring concepts like uncertainty through dense text-based layouts. It uses a strict monochrome palette with dark green-black (#2C3829) ink on white (#FFFFFF) backgrounds. Typography combines Century Schoolbook (transitional-serif) for headings with Next Mono (monospace) for body text. The layout is a multi-column grid with tight spacing. Critical constraints: Never use sans-serif fonts, never add shadows, never use bright colors, never add border-radius, keep body text small (10px), and maintain purely typographic design without decorative images.
