digital twin

Broader concept lifestream implements: public-facing mirror of one person consumption

digital twin

Definition

A digital twin is a public-facing mirror of one person’s consumption and activity, assembled from the APIs of the services they use.

Expanded

Where a lifestream is the specific JSONL-backed event store on me.oriz.in, the digital twin is the category — the design pattern of pulling external service data (music, code, chess, books, films, fitness, …) into one canonical home that represents the person across the open web.

The family’s digital twin is intentionally read-only and public; user authentication on me.oriz.in is only for the page owner’s admin controls. Private journaling lives separately on journal.oriz.in.
