# Rights, Provenance & Claims Boundary

## Ownership and identity

- Dave's Maine Café name, marks, mascot, photographs, menu identity, and business story remain the property of their respective owner(s).
- This system was assembled for Dave's at Ethan Hawkes's direction. It does not itself prove transfer, license acceptance, public-campaign approval, or a paid client relationship.
- Obtain Dave's explicit approval before using testimonial language, paid-client language, customer likenesses, or measured business results.

## Real business imagery

The portfolio uses the same real business images served by `davesmainecafe.com` on 2026-07-13:

- `assets/dave-owner.jpg`
- `assets/lobster-roll.jpeg`
- `assets/bourbon-flight.webp`
- `assets/whoopie-pie.jpeg`
- `assets/beer.webp`
- `assets/chowder.webp`
- `assets/mascot.webp`

The package retains local copies for portfolio stability. Public reuse should follow Dave's approval and the original image rights/consent chain.

## Music

`Route 1 Good Trouble` was generated from original composition plans through ElevenLabs Music v2, with Google Lyria 3 used for independent motif challengers. Twelve full-song candidates were blind-reviewed; selected tracks were repaired and mastered into six individual masters and a 7:32 continuous café mix.

- Master SHA-256: `211865e2435bcd383a380586f9287053bf513236774ae387f8ec2c501ae77070`
- Full production receipt: `artifacts/daves-route1-good-trouble-masterpiece/MASTERING-RECEIPT.json`
- Generation receipts: `artifacts/daves-route1-good-trouble-masterpiece/receipts/`
- Composition plans: `artifacts/daves-route1-good-trouble-masterpiece/plans/`

Final commercial use, public performance, paid advertising, distribution, and sublicensing must match the applicable provider terms and the grant accepted by Dave.

## Human creative contribution

Human-directed contributions include business research, truth-boundary selection, creative thesis, ritual design, composition-plan authorship, lyric and section direction, candidate selection criteria, blind critique, mastering choices, sequencing, visual system, campaign architecture, and deployment design.

## Excluded material

The older synthetic pub video is excluded from the flagship portfolio because it does not depict Dave's actual location, food, staff, or customers. It remains process history and must not be presented as documentary footage.

## Fact policy

- Current hours, prices, menus, tap lists, and promotions are volatile; confirm on the day of use.
- Current website facts may be described as of 2026-07-13.
- Historical social counts, engagement estimates, press claims, and revenue projections from earlier drafts are not carried into this system unless independently reverified.
- No outcome claim may be inferred from production quality.
