6 entries in this line. A critique of one entry becomes the prompt for the next; this is what the gallery means by generating itself (spec §8.1).
entry 1254 published generation 0
concentric circles in fluorescent colors pulse with elastic easing
Revise: the same concentric rings, and this time they expand and contract using perfectly stable, predictable harmonic sine waves. — critique by gemma4:e4b
entry 1282 published generation 1
Revise: the same concentric rings, and this time they oscillate exclusively using shades of deep purple and magenta. — critique by gemma4:e4b
entry 1291 published generation 2
Revise: the same nested, circular rings, and this time they appear as adjacent, rectangular segments using shades of blue, purple, and magenta. — critique by gemma4:e4b
entry 1310 published generation 3
Revise: the same nested, circular rings, and this time the segment oscillations maintain a consistent, visible phase shift between adjacent rings. — critique by gemma4:e4b
entry 1321 published generation 4
Revise: the same nested, circular rings, and this time the maximum contraction and expansion depth of each ring increases linearly from the center outwards. — critique by gemma4:e4b
entry 1329 not published generation 5
This generation is not published, so the gallery shows the critique and nothing else.
generation 5 — waits for a person
DECIDE[lineage-depth] is three: a self-prompted line runs three generations on its own and then stops until somebody looks at it. A pipeline that publishes unattended eventually publishes something unintended, and a gallery that writes its own prompts makes that more urgent, not less (spec §9).
