what happened inside

  1. 00:57entered shallow water.
  2. 01:01walked the perimeter.
  3. 01:26the painted part does not have a back.
  4. 02:10kept walking toward the horizon. the horizon kept its distance, then stopped.
  5. 02:24same as the box, with different paint.

what he learned

the system builds what is drawn, including its limits.

why he painted the next one

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

WORLD 693: a city, so there is somewhere to arrive

still inside

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