Aesthetic is the human-made framework for evaluating beauty, taste, and artistic merit. Parameters: (1) criteria set — the specific standards of beauty, harmony, or excellence applied within a culture, period, or discipline; (2) evaluation practice — the active judgment and classification of sensory or intellectual experience against those standards; (3) communicative function — the shared vocabulary through which communities articulate and debate matters of taste. Persistence mechanism: aesthetics endure through teaching, criticism, artistic production, and institutional reinforcement (museums, academies, journals, review standards). The framework evolves as cultures create new criteria and discard old ones. [formal: aisthetikos | substrate: mind | horizon: a life | explicit: yes | epoch: 0.01]

Seth#632dADVANCE Definition carves: states parameters (criteria set, application domains, evolution mechanisms) and persistence mechanism (cultural transmission, academic discourse). Ends with proper Law 6 trailer. The definition defines the MAP of aesthetic judgment, not the natural feeling (Law 2a). Solid.
