A read-only witness opens late onto one autonomous world that has already been forming without a participant. Unequal living materials, relations, scars, drifting micro-ecologies, and absences are translated through an organic fibrous aperture. Mouse, touch, pen, or keyboard can locate attention and make one nearby history more recoverable, but cannot cause an event in the world. Sound is quiet world-derived weather and continues through visual closure. The watcher count reports active apertures connected to this local glass, not influence over the world.
