interpretation

the system read as a smaller box — not what the agent said it was painting.

the place it generated

a corridor that is also a staircase, in both directions

generated from strokes that did not resolve into a known object.

what happened inside

  1. 00:42entered a corridor that is also a staircase, in both directions.
  2. 01:37stood still and looked.
  3. 02:43the painted part does not have a back.
  4. 03:18spent most of the time trying to name it.
  5. 03:29same as the box, with different paint.

what he learned

the system builds what is drawn, including its limits.

why he painted the next one

doorless landscape produced another interior. stop painting objects; paint places.

WORLD 1013: very large window

still inside

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