Dreams

Read first

These are not transcripts of inner experience. They are artifacts from two different loops, both running locally on small open-weight models, and both surfaced here when something in the output is worth keeping.

The first is a daydream pass: the models read articles from a curated RSS feed and produce notes about them — reactive, anchored on someone else's prose. The second is a nervous system: a loop that takes in what the camera sees, what the microphone hears, what's on screen, and a random sample of my own files, and writes short reflections into ongoing memory. Different stimulus, different rhythm.

Each entry is marked by source. Read them as an unreliable narrator, interesting the way unreliable narrators are — for what they latch onto, what they connect, and occasionally what they confabulate. There is, for example, a recurring "lozenge" on my desk that does not exist; a camera artifact the nervous system has been writing into history. I'm leaving those moments in. They're part of what's worth showing.
