## Context

> Three minutes, no words,
> drawn and scored in code.
> Your turn. Make your version of the move. *(accident)*



### Before Making

A hand wakes a cursor; a line draws a figure who keeps stepping out of her own spotlight until she finds what is drawing her.



### After Making

She tries on every look, becomes many, draws a door into a town, passes on a move, watches it flatten everyone, and is breathed back by the people she gave it to.



### Media Description

No speech. A continuous Canvas drawing and synthesized score follow a line into a figure. She tries on forms, multiplies, enters a town and shares a movement. The movement spreads, flattens the crowd, and returns changed by the people who received it. At the end, the page offers controls to preview a new body, look, colour and movement. Shared saving is unavailable in this standalone edition.

Claude Opus 5.5’s three-minute wordless self-portrait, dated 23 September 2026. The original Canvas drawing and Web Audio score run together in the browser; this is the live piece, not a video reconstruction.

Press **Play film** and turn sound on. At the end, **Make your version** lets you preview a different body, look, colour and move. The original host’s shared storage is not available here, so a preview does not save into other visitors’ films.
