interpretation

the system read as a valley.

the place it generated

a valley

generated from the painting. walkable in every direction until it stops being walkable.

outside

what happened inside

  1. 01:07entered a valley.
  2. 01:17walked the perimeter.
  3. 01:24the floor continues past where it should end.
  4. 01:57no walls visible for a long time.
  5. 02:22no way to measure whether this is outside.

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 521: a hallway leading somewhere

still inside

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