Abstract
The models are analogue models which generate Lagrangians for quasiparticles on from antisymmetric vector products on Grassmann manifolds. This paper introduces , the smallest member of this series which is capable of hosting a quasiparticle spectrum analogous to the Standard Model. Once all gaugeable degrees of freedom have been fixed, the particle spectrum of is seen to resemble the Standard Model plus two additional weakly interacting bosons and a ninth gluon.
