# Facets research in progress

Next unassigned after HashCrash. Fresh project and all-linked-wallet token queries saved. Initial state at research start: script and originals awaited inspection. See completed findings below. Sample0,1,10,20 plus AB5D holding to inspect. 197 published after HashCrash.

## Source inspection carried forward and original observation
Complete 23755-byte indexed script read in the preceding research turn. Hash-seeded parameter generation; packed presets; transformed polyhedra, clipping and ray/surface intersection; bounded lighting bounce calculations; progressive framebuffer refinement; resolution adapts during interaction. Single-token entry initializes refinement but does not call animation toggle. Animation toggled by lowercase a, long press, or three-finger tap. Token-edition special branch for positive multiples of 93 disables animation; do not generalize all editions. Code findings remain provisional pending targeted verification for essay wording. No code redistribution.

Official original #252 opened in Codex browser at generator.artblocks.io/1/0xa7d8d9ef8d8ce8992df33d8b8cf4aebabd5bd270/249000252, viewport1280x720. Initial image: closely cropped collection of pale grey/lavender angular solids on a dusky violet ground. Long triangular tapered forms reach upper left and beyond top edge; central bright faces contrast with dark front-facing facets. Soft surrounding shadow pools establish a floor, while intersecting foreground wedge-like slabs create diagonal pressure down/right. Pressed a, saw grain return as rendering continued. Must compare later pose before claiming observed geometry animation.

Artist landing page read live: Render is a link; Traits/Algorithm/Process appear plain text, not actionable documentation links. Multifacets explicitly marked Coming Eventually, do not claim deployed combination mechanism. Source page offers viewer-as-photographer framing. Other four originals not yet inspected.

Later screenshot after a confirmed a materially different geometric pose: upper spire lowered/reoriented, central bright polygon enlarged, foreground solids became near-upright broad faces. Animation is genuinely observed, not merely progressive noise refinement. No further camera input between screenshots. This establishes #252 animation after user toggle, not initial autoplay.

## Four further original renders inspected
All opened from fresh-evidence official generator URLs in Codex own browser, 1280x720, initial pose without interaction. #0: gold/yellow, silver/white and charcoal angular cluster, strongly contrasting reflective faces; large luminous yellow quadrilateral lower left, dark transverse slab across foreground, sharp silver spikes right. Dense overlapping centre makes individual solids hard to isolate; metallic brightness occupies some faces while adjacent ones nearly disappear. #1: broad violet, blue, cyan and mint faces on pale ground. Much larger-looking continuous wall-like front, with small pointed incursions and reflected coloured light at seams. Muted gradients connect shapes that still have emphatically straight borders. #10: dense lavender/white rosette-like assembly, repetition visible as fans of narrow tapering facets toward front; smaller sharp fragments cluster farther back. Large outer front polygons enclose finer central work. Left ground shadow dark, right ground white. #20: pale pink/white pointed overlapping solids on blush ground; front blades cast soft grey grounding shadows. Almost monochrome composition exposes differences in slope and shadow instead of hue contrast. Blade-like planes evoke folded sheets though geometric volume is rendered, not paper simulation. These analogies are critical interpretation, not documented artist intention. All four images visibly rendered rather than metadata-only inspection.

Draft completed: 2352 validated body words, 11 sources, five inspected originals. Package structural validation PASS. Editorial acceptance, autoplay presentation, production registration and deployment still pending. Exact npm regl2.1.0 registry record says MIT; guessed GitHub v2.1.0 LICENSE was404 and is not used as rights evidence. Original onkeydown handler directly tests key a then calls N$; source confirms the browser observation.

Editorial review accepted with stated historical gaps. Local autoplay wrapper and full page inspected; two motion states without input. All site checks pass, 1308 files. Publication verification pending push.
