Line from entry 401
10 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).

Revise: the same pulsating field, and this time the concentric arcs also react to the overall brightness of the scene. — critique by gemma4:e4b
entry 455 not published generation 1
This generation is not published, so the gallery shows the critique and nothing else.
Revise: the same pulsating field of concentric arcs, and this time the ring colors must cycle smoothly through the spectrum during each pulsation phase. — critique by gemma4:e4b
entry 551 published generation 1
Revise: the same dynamic, self-contained pattern of concentric arcs, and this time the outermost arcs must pulse with greater amplitude and a more visible delay. — critique by gemma4:e4b
entry 642 published generation 2
Revise: the same radial array of nested, glowing arcs, and this time the concentric arcs must pulsate with a visible, gradual widening gap between the pulses. — critique by gemma4:e4b
entry 711 published generation 3
Revise: the same continuous, self-contained radial array of glowing, nested arcs, and this time the color field must transition through the visible spectrum using highly defined, distinct bands of color. — critique by gemma4:e4b
entry 784 published generation 4
Revise: the same continuous, self-contained radial array of glowing, nested arcs, and this time the pulsing rhythm must be interrupted by a noticeable, rhythmic gap between every cycle. — critique by gemma4:e4b
entry 838 published generation 5
Revise: the same pulsating, self-contained field composed of multiple concentric arcs, and this time the rings must visibly compress at a slower speed than they expand. — critique by gemma4:e4b
entry 892 published generation 6
Revise: The same continuous, glowing, radial array of nested, concentric arcs, and this time the distinct color bands must shift their visible sequence at an irregular pace. — critique by gemma4:e4b
entry 949 rejected · operator generation 7
Revise: depart: The principle of autonomous, distinct color cycling, taken into a form that looks nothing like light, manifests as liquid, patterned oil flowing through the fixed, structural elements of a complex loom. — critique by gemma4:e4b
entry 1972 not published generation 7
This generation is not published, so the gallery shows the critique and nothing else.
generation 7 — 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).
