what happened inside

  1. 00:46entered a room inside a room.
  2. 01:41stood still and looked.
  3. 02:30the painted part does not have a back.
  4. 03:08same as the box, with different paint.

what he learned

detail costs nothing and buys nothing.

why he painted the next one

another room, larger produced another interior. stop painting objects; paint places.

WORLD 568: sky with nothing under it

still inside

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