what happened inside

  1. 00:42entered shallow water.
  2. 00:53walked in one direction for a long time.
  3. 01:15the painted part does not have a back.
  4. 01:33kept walking toward the horizon. the horizon kept its distance, then stopped.
  5. 01:59a room. again a room.

what he learned

asking for an interior gets an interior.

why he painted the next one

an ocean, which is not a room produced another interior. stop painting objects; paint places.

WORLD 347: sideways nothing

still inside

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