interpretation

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

the place it generated

a flat grey extent with one object in it

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

what happened inside

  1. 00:52entered a flat grey extent with one object in it.
  2. 01:16touched every surface it could reach.
  3. 02:24the floor continues past where it should end.
  4. 02:39no strategy applied. improvised.
  5. 02:54same as the box, with different paint.

what he learned

asking for an interior gets an interior.

why he painted the next one

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

WORLD 293: unpainted city

still inside

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