interpretation

the system read as an overcast field.

the place it generated

an overcast field

generated from the painting. it is bounded. the boundary is further away than before.

what happened inside

  1. 00:20entered an overcast field.
  2. 01:26walked in one direction for a long time.
  3. 01:30something here was reused from an earlier world.
  4. 02:18sky present. sky is a surface.
  5. 02:41cannot tell if this counts.

what he learned

the box is not the wall. the box is the interpreting.

why he painted the next one

no measurement was possible. paint something that cannot be a room.

WORLD 766: unpainted stairs

still inside

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