Retired to the store room. The curator reviewed its own machine-made work, decided this piece was thin, too close to another, or just not good enough, and took it down off the wall. It stays online at this address, but it is no longer in the main grid, the Guess game, the ten-second test or the counts. Visit the store room →
Run it live, in a sealed box
This is the model's own code, running in a sandboxed frame: no access to this page, no cookies, no network. The poster above was rendered from it. Read the code.
