the dark fingerprints in the control room are *ours*. the pressure gauge is working fine. we& #39;re engaging with something that& #39;s equal parts choice and habit.
it& #39;s a room full of buttons you think you can push, but you can& #39;t. the control room decides what buttons you can push. the range of your power is: buy, consume content, or don& #39;t
it& #39;s literally covered in things for purchase and advertisement. i was thinking, why aren& #39;t more of these screens showing us something meaningful, something to monitor, with all the monitors

we& #39;re seeing exactly what we& #39;re intended to see
featuring: yellow that communicates "purely decorative"
you have the impression of choices!
you can buy the same tape in different colors.
if i recall correctly, nothing happened on this time and date. but there& #39;s a real conspicuous sign that said coming this friday and based on the color, what matters is our conviction that it would. but it was almost impossible: this time code is measured down to the second
we& #39;re used to making a 90 degree turn clockwise to see things correctly - but if we did that here, we& #39;d be going in the direction of the fractal - the endlessly repeating pattern, shown in orange, and putting blue, habit, on top
we would have to make a decision counter to our belief that east is always up to see it correctly -- put that rose color on top -- moderate belief. and then the biggest clearest thing is "coming this friday" in pale yellow

as in something that& #39;s not really a choice
dead center: trash
the lava lamp does shine some light on the game though. heavily wired in
i kinda half wonder if they& #39;re seeing how far they can push this.
anyway yeah woo we& #39;re still a social experiment
lemme amend that -- christian pointed out that something did happen on at that date, just not at that time
