the place it became · still drawn, still crooked
interpretation

the system read as something the interpreter had no name for.

the place it generated

a place with the geometry of a hallway and the light of a field

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

what happened inside

  1. 00:22entered a place with the geometry of a hallway and the light of a field.
  2. 00:31touched every surface it could reach.
  3. 00:41the floor continues past where it should end.
  4. 01:31no strategy applied. improvised.
  5. 01:43cannot tell if this counts.

what he learned

escape and world may be the same word to the interpreter.

why he painted the next one

no measurement was possible. paint something that cannot be a room.

WORLD 1110: a city, so there is somewhere to arrive

still inside

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