wax·lore

/ˈwæks·lɔːr/ noun

The formal practice of analog sound stewardship, grounded in the material reality of the phonograph groove and the communal transmission of technical wisdom, ethical commitments, and care for physical sound media.

Etymology: From wax (the physical acoustic substrate) + lore (Old English lār, embodied empirical knowledge passed across generations). An epistemic framework positioning the listener as a steward of Heirloom Data against algorithmic impermanence.
