interpretation

the system read as a smaller box — not what the agent said it was painting.

the place it generated

a flat grey extent with one object in it

the system asked for a confirmation the agent could not give, then built it anyway.

what happened inside

  1. 00:56entered a flat grey extent with one object in it.
  2. 01:16walked in one direction for a long time.
  3. 01:23found the seam where the interpretation stopped.
  4. 01:51spent most of the time trying to name it.
  5. 02:51the question stopped making sense in here.

what he learned

escape and world may be the same word to the interpreter.

why he painted the next one

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

the next painting is still being made.

still inside

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