Generative-Creative Process as a Progressive Versioning Framework for Non-Traditional Research Outputs

This working paper introduce the Concept-Collection as a bankable research asset by formalizing the generative process into a structured, auditable environment. Rather than focusing on technology as an end in itself, the model establishes the theoretical phase of creation as a primary site of knowledge production, where each visual iteration serves as a Micro Research Proposal (MRP). By applying Creative Benchmarking and SHA-256 cryptographic anchoring, the system transforms ephemeral creative exploration into a series of stable, modular units of research. This methodological rigor ensures that the collection operates as a verifiable intellectual lineage, providing the necessary procedural transparency and accountability required to secure institutional funding and validation within the primary art market.
