entry 153 published generation 0
hallucinate, allow unharnessed, unrestrained visual code explorations
Revise: the same fluid tapestry, and this time with color gradients that deepen the illusion of depth — critique by gemma4:e4b
entry 213 published generation 1
Revise: the same vast, fluid tapestry of interwoven, shifting organic shapes, and this time the color gradients reveal distinct, deep-sea bioluminescent vein structures that appear to pulse with the current flow. — critique by gemma4:e4b
entry 257 published generation 2
Revise: the same vast, fluid tapestry of interwoven, abstract organic shapes, and this time the deep current momentarily organizes the luminous shapes into complex, crystalline lattice structures. — critique by gemma4:e4b
entry 301 not published generation 3
This generation is not published, so the gallery shows the critique and nothing else.
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).
