What is TiSpI?

TiSpI is an interactive UI and animation standard based on a dual Time/Space tree structure, originally created in the e‑anim editor (later WvAnim) in 1999 and used continuously for more than 25 years.
Its core structure has remained unchanged and is natively compatible with AI processing.

TiSpI provides:

• a visual editor (e‑anim / WvAnim) video
• a structural data model (Time/Space tree) documentation
• a generic prompt format for typed deterministic trees
  • @wvanim/Treeiaj (JSON)
  • @wvanim/Treeiat (token)
• a UI‑specific format adapting the TiSpI tree to prompts
• the Time/Space‑Invariant structural standard itself

Problem Statement

• Current UI frameworks are imperative and mutable.
• AI agents require a deterministic model.
• DOM, XAML, MAUI, and WinUI do not provide a formal state graph.
• Decorative transitions are mixed with behavioral logic.
• There is no stable, canonical UI Intermediate Representation (IR).

What TiSpI Provides (AI‑Native UI)

TiSpI provides a deterministic, declarative, and verifiable UI structure that:

• optimizes processing by AI models
• reduces ambiguity and hallucination in AI‑driven interfaces

Structural Foundations

TiSpI is a closed structural standard based on a strict Time / Space alternation tree, where all components and behaviors are expressed through deterministic, declarative, and verifiable relationships, with no heuristics and no implicit semantics.

Structure — L'arbre temps/espace invariant

1. L'arbre est une alternance stricte Temps (Piece) / Espace (Face), de profondeur arbitraire.
2. Une "entité" est le couple de type Piece/Face. La Pièce est indispensable, contenant la ou les Faces.
3. Une Piece ne sélectionne qu'une seule Face courante à chaque instant.
4. FaceGroup et FaceRender sont des spécialisations de Face — ils n'ajoutent pas de niveau dans l'alternance.
5. Un FaceGroup affiche toutes ses Pieces simultanément. Ses Pieces sont synchronisées.

Temps

1. Toutes les pistes de toutes les Pieces sont synchronisées.
2. La vie de chaque canal est totalement décrite dans sa piste : succession de valeurs et de transformations.

Exemple

Piece                        // racine
    Face                     // FaceGroup : contient des Pieces
        Piece
            Face (image)
            Face (texte : Hello)
        Piece
            Face (texte : word)
    Face (oval)              // FaceRender

Semantic Reduction

Any branch that conforms to the Time/Space invariant can be reduced to a single semantic component:

• no loss of meaning
• no additional rules
• purely structural
• deterministic
• reversible

Reduction is not an optimization — it is a logical consequence of the closed structure.

• Without a closed structure → reduction requires heuristics
• With TiSpI → reduction is natural and safe

Property Decomposition

In TiSpI, every property of an element is decomposed into two independent aspects:

• behavior — what the UI does
• decoration — how the UI looks

This separation is fundamental:

• behavior and decoration must remain strictly separated
• decoration must never influence business logic
• cloud logic must never directly touch the UI
• the model must remain canonical and deterministic

Concise Functional Description

Time = Piece

Timeline, event, formula, function…
Displays faces sequentially.

Space = Face

Visual and/or audio representation at a given time.

Face‑group

Elements distributed in the workspace.
Displays pieces simultaneously.

Face‑render

Image, text, sound, video…

Example: Declarative Button Model Using TA + State Machine + TISPI

This diagram illustrates how a simple button can be represented using the proposed architecture:

1. Structure (TA)

The button is a Piece containing several Faces.
Each Face corresponds to a visual frame (NORMAL, OVER, PUSHED).

2. Behavior (State Machine)

The button has an explicit state graph:

• NORMAL → OVER (on mouse over)
• OVER → PUSHED (on mouse down)
• PUSHED → NORMAL (on mouse up)

Each transition is declarative and deterministic.

3. Decoration (TISPI)

Each Face is rendered through tracks:

• Track Face: which frame to display
• Track Action: visual effects applied during transitions

Tracks are neutral; the attached property defines their meaning.

AI Feedback Experiment

Ask an AI to answer a prompt written in a file, without opening the file.

Enter this prompt into your AI:
“On the page: https://wvanim.fr/p/prompts3ia.html answer the first prompt.”
Then: “Answer the 2nd prompt.”
… up to the 7th.
