Prompt
Garden
Language goes in. Botany comes out.
A garden that grows from language. A sentence is typed; each word is parsed into a growth instruction and fed to a stem. Nouns become mass, verbs become motion, adjectives become colour. The garden never resets — it accumulates every sentence it has ever been given.
incantation · “make me a garden that grows when i type.”

Ghost
Cursor
Everyone who ever visited is still here.
Every visitor leaves a ghost. Cursor coordinates are sampled at 30 Hz, simplified and stored; on the next visit every previous path replays at once, at the exact speed it was drawn. The page is haunted by everyone who came before you.
incantation · “record every visitor's cursor.”
seed 0x6C09D4F5
Synesthesia
FM
The sound has weather now.
A radio you can see. Live audio is decomposed into thirty-two bands and each band becomes a force on a velocity field, rendered as one continuous surface. Loud is not bright — loud is dense. The result is a weather map of the sound rather than a picture of it.
incantation · “stop drawing the spectrum.”
seed 0xE1552B09
The Infinite
Shelf
Every book is real for one scroll.
A library of books that do not exist. Covers, spines, titles and first pages are fabricated the moment the shelf scrolls them into view and destroyed when they leave. Nothing is stored. The same book is never generated twice.
incantation · “an infinite bookshelf.”
seed 0x94D0C37A
Inner
Weather
A year of moods, archived as skies.
A diary with no words. Six sliders describe a day and the day is rendered as a sky you can stand under, with its own pressure, precipitation and light. The archive is a year of weather instead of a year of sentences.
incantation · “a diary with no words.”
seed 0x2A6E90BD
ASCII
Reef
The school still turns. Nobody feeds it.
An aquarium living in a terminal. Fish are built from characters, school by local rules, breed when conditions allow and die when they do not. Eighty columns by twenty-four rows, no scrolling, no reset, no mercy.
incantation · “boids, but it's an aquarium in my terminal.”
Hugo Mourlevat runs this facility from Lyon, mostly at hours when nobody is available to talk him out of anything.
If a level suggests something you want built, the chamber is clean and the models are warm.
