hot air balloons
Revise: the same hot air balloons, and this time the soft banks of cloud drift sideways at many different speeds — critique by gemma4:e4b
entry 1287 not published generation 1
This generation is not published, so the gallery shows the critique and nothing else.
Revise: flip: a swarm of derelict, weighted dirigible frames tumbling rapidly downward through a smog-stained afternoon sky, driven by chaotic wind currents, made of salvaged sheet metal, seen at street level, driven by sudden gusts. — critique by gemma4:e4b
entry 2004 published generation 1
Revise: depart: the overwhelming gravity of decaying skeletal structures taken into a vast, overgrown underwater garden of brittle coral and falling kelp, made of cut paper. — critique by gemma4:e4b
entry 2191 published generation 2
Revise: flip: a dense swarm of heavy, interconnected mechanical weights and chains, constantly oscillating with rhythmic, percussive force, made of ceramic tile, seen at street level, driven by counterweights. — critique by gemma4:e4b

generation 3 — 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).
