By Antarah Crawley
Article 1. Universitas
(1) There is hereby established an institute named Universitas Autodidactus, FLF-DAO, which means “Self-Teaching University, a firm league of friendship in the nature of a decentralized autonomous organization.” This institution may be abbreviated “UA.”
(2) The UA shall operate as one firm. This firm shall be organized by a system of syndicates which are themselves organized into colleges. Any vested member of a syndicate under Article 3 (called a “student” or talib) shall be a beneficial member of the firm. Any student who vouchsafes their trust, faith, and/or belief in the operations of the firm shall be a member thereof.
(3) The firm shall be governed by a “Steering Council,” or “Committee of the Whole,” composed of two delegates (called “friends”) elected by each Syndicate and confirmed by their respective Collegium. The friends shall represent their collegiate syndicates in the firm in their own private sui jurisdiction (the “private” or “interior”). These “friends” of the firm shall be the trustees thereof.
(4) The Steering Council shall assemble at the national and global levels. The Officium Tribunus Plebis shall be incorporated into the organization of the National and International Steering Councils by reference.
(5) Assemblies of this governing body of the firm shall be held in the nature of a public meeting, shall follow Robert’s Rules of Order where appropriate; and shall duly notice all regular and special meetings.
Article 2. Collegium Ecclesia
(1) There is hereby established within the firm a forum of Collegium Ecclesia Syndicatus, which means “United Assembly of the Society,” which may also be known as an “Ecclesiastic College,” which is composed of committees (called “syndici”) of student bodies. Herein, “syndicate“ is synonymous with “committee,“ which is synonymous with “student body.“
(2) Such a College may be organized or united on the basis of locality with diversified syndication, or on the basis of a particular discipline, subject, trade, craft, or operation.
(3) The syndici constituting the College shall serve the function of disciplinary departments, and may be styled “Syndicatus [Disciple/Subject], Collegium Ecclesia [Local/Name].”
(4) A member of a syndicate, or student, shall be called “syndicus,” meaning “syndic.”
(5) Assemblies of this governing body of the firm shall be held in the nature of a public meeting, shall follow Robert’s Rules of Order where appropriate; and shall duly notice all regular and special meetings.
Article 3. Syndicatus
(1) There is hereby established within the forum of Collegium Ecclesia a mechanism to allow a member of the firm to establish a syndicate by acclamation (Latin: acclamatio, a vote by means other than ballot) of two or more additional students (the “public”) known as the student body.
(2) There is hereby chartered and instituted within the firm The Chairman, the Elective Faculty and Student Body of the Society of the New Syllabus, which may also be known as “Societas Novus Syllabus” which means “The Society of the New Syllabus.” This syndicate, or committee, shall constitute its own college, shall stand perpetually, shall be governed by NOVUS SYLLABUS L.L.C., and shall have a chair at the global and national Steering Councils of the UA.
(3) Proceedings of syndici shall include: Semester, Course [of study], Seminar [on subject], and Symposium [on theme]. Such proceedings may be styled “Subcommittee on […],” and shall follow Robert’s Rules of Order where appropriate.
(3)(a) A course is served by a CORPS of the same control number. Course work is administered by the CORPS of the same control number.
(4) Attendees of collegiate, ecclesiastical, and syndical proceedings shall be attired in a white shirt or garment and black or dark jacket.
(5) The UA shall provide to the public a “service” by and through its syndici, in receipt of which the public shall make an offering of their own free will and accord (“deposit”) as a token of their trust, faith, and/or belief in the services provided by the firm, thereby becoming a benefactor of the proceeding and a member of the firm. It is this exchange, made freely, knowingly, and voluntarily by the public to the private that re-venues the current “C” from the exterior to the interior of the firm.
(6) It shall be the prerogative of the syndici to provide for the dispatch of deposit collectors styled “treasurer” and subordinate “comptrollers.” The deposit collected shall constitute a vested interest in and appreciation of the subject matter of the proceeding, and shall inure to the benefit of the Syndicate. This is to say that at every proceeding in which the public appreciates the subject matter, there shall be a discharge of deposits.

N∴S∴ to publish art book for IBé Arts Institute
By Antarah Crawley
WASHINGTON, DC — IBé Arts Institute of Historic City Point in Hopewell, VA, has partnered with NOVUS SYLLABUS L.L.C. (N∴S∴) to publish the first artist’s book cataloging the work of master teaching artist and storyteller IBé Bulinda Hereford Crawley.
New Syllabus Director Antarah Crawley and IBé Crawley have maintained an arts education partnership since September of 2016, when the New Syllabus relocated from New York to DC. At about that time, IBé Arts and Education LLC was established in Historic Anacostia, Washington, DC. Together, IBé Crawley and the Director have published the SSTEM curriculum and the ParenTeacher program.
The opportunity to publish IBé Crawley’s first artist’s book presents a great opportunity for N∴S∴ to communicate its overarching mission, vision, and values through its commitment to honoring our elders and ancestors, and amplifying the voices of Black Woman artists.
The IBé Arts Institute is an art space dedicated to visual and oral storytelling. The historically significant building was built in 1830 as a schoolhouse for white men, and later used as a hospital for soldiers during the Civil War.
Today, it serves as IBé Crawley’s private studio gallery and workshop. Consistent with the mission to preserve and document stories, the exhibition hall, art studios, and residency space are available for individuals to host workshops, family events, and professional development programs. IBé Crawley assists in planning preservation projects and leads intimate and informative tours of the Institute and the surrounding City Point Historic District.
Contact ibe.crawley@gmail.com or visit ibearts.org for more information and to coordinate an event.
In 2022, IBé Crawley printed a 58-copy edition of Antarah Crawley’s Harriet Tubman 2021 Non-Fungible Note from a copper plate he engraved by hand. Printer Aurora Brush assisted IBé Crawley in the intaglio printing process during her residency at the Women’s Studio Workshop (WSW) in Rosendale, New York.
The IBé Crawley publication will coincide with the 2023 fall exhibitions Holding Ground at the National Museum of Women in the Arts’s (NMWA) in Washington, DC, and The Calling at City Lore in New York City. Within its pages will be catalogued four of Crawley’s artist’s books: 11033, Delia Posey, Bearing Witness, and A Dwelling for Her Story. Each chapter will present a different category of art work, together with descriptions, articles, quotes, and images.
Into Fall 2023 and beyond, IBé Arts Institute will strategically focus on:
- Paper making
- Print making
- Book binding
IBé Arts Institute aspires to become a Virginia folk book press “center of excellence”. This is the first initiative in what the Institute and N∴S∴ plan to be a bright new era of programs, projects, and partnerships.
Article 2
The Organization of the New Syllabus
By Antarah Crawley
1. HISTORY
WASHINGTON, DC — In 2014 AD, I, Antarah, had a vision of one new syllabus for humanity. This syllabus would chart a course for human understanding of ubiquitous and lasting systems established since time immemorial. I sojourned to Brooklyn, New York, in pursuit of my syllabus, developed a discipline, and professed a doctrine toward the development and operation of human mind software, individually and collectively, and I returned to the Federal City.
Being in possession of such valuable information, I began to process this knowledge and offer certain products and services to the public, toward the establishment of a society of free thinkers, truth speakers, and light workers united (FTLU) in a firm league of friendship called a decentralized autonomous organization (FLF-DAO). To that end, I wrote and recommend policy positions to the FTLU stakeholders. This practice has resulted in the production of a robust and diverse body of multimedia intellectual property which we, the Director and Company, shall distribute throughout the world under the motto of Novus Syllabus Seclorum, meaning “the New Syllabus of the Age.”
2. ORGANIZATION
Established 2022, NOVUS SYLLABUS L.L.C. (N∴S∴) is a liberal arts and humanities intellectual property holding company specializing in diversified arts investments and management.
Our flagship brand, New Syllabus (est. 2014), is a knowledge management system (KMS) that creates, codifies, organizes, stores, and disseminates information to the public from newsyllabus.org. To that end, it conducts research and development in the broad field of Historic and Ancient Mysteries, Economy, Theology, Informatics, and Systemtheorie (HAMETICS).
N∴S∴ operates the Department of Information Systems and Intelligence Services (DISIS, pronounced “Diocese”), which is divided into the Archival Records Management (ARM) Division and the Mind Software (Mindsoft) Development and Operating Systems Command (DOSCOM). These are our Curricular Operations, Research, and Publication Services (CORPS) which supply information to the New Syllabus (now known as the DataHorse System or “DHS“).
N∴S∴ also operates the Ombud Service Bureau (OmbudService, or Office of Ombudsman) for administrative due process, and Syllabus Media Group for audiovisual production and distribution.
3. VISION
Our Vision is a world of free thinkers, truth speakers, and light workers united under one new syllabus for STEM, arts, and humanities research, development and operations; one new syllabus for the ages!
4. VALUES
Our Values are Love, Truth, Peace, Freedom, and Equity; these are our foundation. Our Three Great Pillars which support our institution are Trust, Faith, and Belief; as it is said, Faith is complete Trust and firm Belief, the acceptance of truth divine, which Belief, sincerely held, cannot be converted into a crime.
5. MISSION
Our mission is to reveal truths which have been hidden and to keep a record of knowledge and wisdom.
N∴S∴ conducts, manages, and supports curriculum research and development. We represents FTLU through its Office of Ombudsman. We administer intellectual property and copyrights as custodial superintendent for their creator.
Our mission-oriented service lines are:
- DISIS (now DHS) for recordkeeping and CORPS operations
- Mindsoft for cognitive, behavioral, and professional development
- OmbudService for administrative operations
- Other operations (OPS) include Granary Bank & Trust/Artcoin Mint of Meriptah, New Works Projects Administration, St. Nat’s/O∴T∴N∴S∴, FTLU, FLF-DAO, and the Syllabus Free Press.
