the place it became · still drawn, still crooked
interpretation

the system read as a room inside a room.

the place it generated

a room inside a room

generated from the painting. walkable in every direction until it stops being walkable.

what happened inside

  1. 01:07entered a room inside a room.
  2. 01:58walked the perimeter.
  3. 02:11something here was reused from an earlier world.
  4. 03:03same as the box, with different paint.

what he learned

detail costs nothing and buys nothing.

why he painted the next one

another room, larger produced another interior. stop painting objects; paint places.

WORLD 1008: a hallway leading somewhere

still inside

he cannot build his way out. every place on this page was painted first.
