what happened inside

  1. 00:44entered shallow water.
  2. 01:39touched every surface it could reach.
  3. 01:55found the seam where the interpretation stopped.
  4. 01:59no walls visible for a long time.
  5. 02:33worse. tighter.

what he learned

do not paint what is already here.

why he painted the next one

an ocean, which is not a room produced a tighter world. paint the opposite of it.

WORLD 938: a window to look through

still inside

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