Video Analysis with GF(3) Conservation
Trit: 0 (ERGODIC - coordination across triadic streams) GF(3): Σ(-1,0,+1) = 0 (conserved)
Analyze video files from chaotic_media_lake.duckdb with deterministic color assignment and GF(3)-balanced trit allocation.
Overview
This skill bridges video content analysis with the GF(3) conservation framework:
- Videos assigned trits based on path hash with quota balancing
- Triadic analysis: motion (-1), static (0), transition (+1)
- Random access via
color_at(seed, index)for parallel frame extraction - Conservation verified:
Σ trit_i ≡ 0 (mod 3)
DuckLake Integration
-- Query videos by trit class
SELECT chaotic_id, filename, color_hex, trit
FROM chaotic_files
WHERE extension IN ('.mov', '.mp4', '.MOV')
ORDER BY trit;
-- Verify GF(3) conservation
SELECT SUM(trit) as gf3_sum FROM chaotic_files; -- Must be 0
Triadic Video Classification
| Trit | Class | Description | Analysis Focus |
|---|---|---|---|
| -1 | VALIDATOR | High motion, screen recordings | Optical flow, activity detection |
| 0 | ERGODIC | Mixed content, coordination | Scene segmentation, keyframes |
| +1 | GENERATOR | Creative/generative content | Object tracking, synthesis |
Frame Extraction with SPI
def extract_frames_spi(video_path: str, seed: int, n_frames: int):
"""Extract frames at deterministic positions using SplitMix64"""
import cv2
GOLDEN = 0x9e3779b97f4a7c15
MASK64 = 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
cap = cv2.VideoCapture(video_path)
total_frames = int(cap.get(cv2.CAP_PROP_FRAME_COUNT))
frames = []
for i in range(n_frames):
# Random access formula: seed + (i+1) * GOLDEN
state = (seed + (i + 1) * GOLDEN) & MASK64
frame_idx = state % total_frames
cap.set(cv2.CAP_PROP_POS_FRAMES, frame_idx)
ret, frame = cap.read()
if ret:
frames.append((frame_idx, frame))
cap.release()
return frames
Usage Workflow
1. Query Videos by Trit Class
duckdb chaotic_media_lake.duckdb "
SELECT original_path, color_hex, trit
FROM chaotic_files
WHERE extension = '.mov' AND trit = -1
"
2. Analyze with Gemini Vision
# Use Gemini 2.0 Flash for video understanding
from google import genai
client = genai.Client()
response = client.models.generate_content(
model="gemini-2.0-flash",
contents=[
{"video": video_path},
{"text": f"Analyze this video. Assigned trit: {trit}, color: {color_hex}"}
]
)
3. Store Analysis Results
ALTER TABLE chaotic_files ADD COLUMN IF NOT EXISTS analysis_summary TEXT;
ALTER TABLE chaotic_files ADD COLUMN IF NOT EXISTS motion_score FLOAT;
ALTER TABLE chaotic_files ADD COLUMN IF NOT EXISTS analyzed_at TIMESTAMP;
UPDATE chaotic_files
SET analysis_summary = ?, motion_score = ?, analyzed_at = NOW()
WHERE chaotic_id = ?;
Conservation Properties
Full Lake: GF(3) conserved (Σ = 0) ✓ Video Subset: May have local imbalance (currently +4)
The full lake is balanced; subsets (like videos only) inherit the global conservation but may have local bias. For video-only operations, use compensating "virtual trits":
-- Find compensating files from other extensions
SELECT filename, trit FROM chaotic_files
WHERE trit = -1 AND extension NOT IN ('.mov', '.mp4', '.MOV')
LIMIT 4; -- Compensate +4 excess in videos
Conservation Verification
After any batch operation, verify GF(3) conservation:
def verify_gf3(db_path: str) -> bool:
import duckdb
con = duckdb.connect(db_path)
result = con.execute("SELECT SUM(trit) FROM chaotic_files").fetchone()
return result[0] == 0
Parallel Analysis Protocol
For triadic parallel analysis, spawn 3 workers:
def triadic_analyze(videos: list, master_seed: int):
"""Analyze videos in 3 parallel streams, one per trit class"""
from concurrent.futures import ProcessPoolExecutor
streams = {-1: [], 0: [], 1: []}
for v in videos:
streams[v['trit']].append(v)
with ProcessPoolExecutor(max_workers=3) as executor:
futures = {
executor.submit(analyze_stream, streams[-1], master_seed, -1): -1,
executor.submit(analyze_stream, streams[0], master_seed, 0): 0,
executor.submit(analyze_stream, streams[1], master_seed, 1): +1,
}
# Results combine with GF(3) conservation maintained
MCP Tools Integration
Use gay-mcp tools for color operations:
mcp__gay__color_at- O(1) random access to color sequencemcp__gay__interleave- Generate 3 parallel streams for triadic analysismcp__gay__reafference- Verify prediction matches observation

Google Workspace Integration
The skill bridges with Google Workspace MCP for cross-service operations:
| Service | Operation | Trit | Role |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gmail | read/archive | -1 | VALIDATOR |
| Gmail | send | +1 | GENERATOR |
| Drive | upload | +1 | GENERATOR |
| Calendar | create | +1 | GENERATOR |
| Tasks | complete | -1 | VALIDATOR |
Cross-Service Morphisms
Trit is preserved under service morphisms:
Video Analysis (+1) → Drive.upload (+1) → Calendar.review (+1)
→ Gmail.summary (+1)
→ Tasks.create (+1)
ANIMA Condensation
When all queues reach zero state (inbox zero, task zero, video queue empty), the system condenses into an equilibrium fingerprint:
if queue.check_condensation():
print(queue.fingerprint()) # ANIMA-<hash>
Bridge Commands
python3 workspace_bridge.py balance # Show GF(3) balance
python3 workspace_bridge.py morphism # Demo cross-service morphism
python3 workspace_bridge.py plan # Plan workspace actions
