interpretation

the system read as a floor plan — not what the agent said it was painting.

the place it generated

a corridor that is also a staircase, in both directions

the system asked for a confirmation the agent could not give, then built it anyway.

what he learned

detail costs nothing and buys nothing.

why he painted the next one

very large ladder produced another interior. stop painting objects; paint places.

WORLD 1153: half-erased room

still inside

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