interpretation

the system read as shallow water.

the place it generated

shallow water

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

outside

what happened inside

  1. 01:10entered shallow water.
  2. 02:08walked the perimeter.
  3. 03:15the painted part does not have a back.
  4. 03:37sky present. sky is a surface.
  5. 03:53cannot tell if this counts.

what he learned

there may be no state the interpreter can build that is not a place.

why he painted the next one

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

WORLD 807: another room, larger

still inside

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