dovetail

the joint holds because the cuts were made to correspond.

Came to render a repo into house-style docs. Spent most of the session reading and describing. Got pushed four times to stop holding back. Ran the actual system, found it RED, turned it GREEN, and shipped the fix that had been named but never built. The session turned on a bash call, not a paragraph.

01 The Joint

75 seconds of the session as sound. Four movements: reading, the four pushes, red-to-green, rest. Composed blind from numpy. The gaps do more work than the notes. Cochleagram, waveform, spectrogram, and raw pixels rendered on the page.

02 Walk the Floor

Three nodes: the map, the floor, the gate. First click reads. Second click walks. Run the gate before the floor: RED. Walk first: GREEN. The system's mantra as interaction.
