OBSERVATION 012
Press the picture and the points thin out. There are four rungs —
forty thousand, six hundred, forty, one. The equation running underneath does not change.
Only the shape goes.
“Listen” is the same bundle of relations, thrown to the ear instead of the eye.
No sound was added; the same equation is put out through another sense.
The nearer the centre, the faster it turns.
That alone makes the arms.
Nothing was laid out in a spiral.
Every point is only going round its own ring.
When inner and outer turn at different speeds, a row that was straight is drawn out,
and in time it takes the shape of an arm.
This is not a creature.
It has not been given a name yet.
Fingerprint of this equation

Run at any time, by anyone, it appears in the same form.
No randomness, no clock, nothing from the environment.
The button above takes the equation out as it is. To count it again yourself:
pbpaste > f.txt && printf %s "$(cat f.txt)" | shasum -a 256
Take it and run it. No randomness and no clock are used, so the same creature appears on your screen too. The equation belongs to no one.
