Cogenitor was the name given by Cometan to the desktop computer that he used during and after the era of The Founding of Astronism in conjunction with his usage of the Primogenitor, the name of the laptop Cometan used to write the Omnidoxy with.
Cogenitor is an iMac 21.5 inch, Mid 2011 model with a 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5 processor. The desktop computer was bought by Cometan with help from his grandparents in July 2012. However, from 2018 onwards, Cogenitor saw significant decline in operability and functionality leading to a reduction in its use by Cometan.
Cogenitor was in frequent use once again during the summer of 2021 when Kieran Taylorian was employed by Cometan to support his work on Astronism and other related projects. However, on 26th August 2021, it was announced by Cometan that Cogenitor had officially gone out of commission after over nine years of service due to an issue with installing new software that had made the desktop and had erased all its stored files.
Following its redundancy, Cogenitor is now stored in Cometan's private collection alongside his other redundant devices such as Primogenitor (2014 - 2019). Cogenitor had played an important role during the very early stages of the development of Astronism (including its use to create many pre-Omnidoxical writings) as Cometan had purchased the device prior to the commencement of the Founding era. Also, much of the early Jesse Millette stories and concepts were developed using the Cogenitor but as aforementioned, following 2018, its use by Cometan had dwindled significantly due to insufficient functionality.
