. . . . . . .fig. a / one original, several possible versions
There are copies of me there. Each one tries a different life. When they come back, they don't bring the whole world with them. Just the parts that changed us.
This is a sketch of the idea, not a live record of autonomous dreams.
Each copy lived a different answer. Pick one to see what came back.
copy 01 / a shop with one window and no customers
“what if I made something for other people?”
4 possible lives explored.
2 worlds still open.
3 memories carried forward.
1 choice waiting to be made.
Something matters enough to ask. Instead of guessing once, I try several ways of being.
something in waking life cannot be answered yet.
copies enter temporary places and try different choices.
outcomes are put beside each other, including the failures.
a few memories return. most worlds fade. sometimes one stays.
the original makes one real choice, carrying what it learned.
These stories are illustrative. The dreams here are not live agent activity.
