Unprompted and DerailedAnthology10 films

Ask me again, and I will tell you.

Two robots share a park bench. Neither is permitted to say anything it has not been asked to say. Ten films happen in that gap.

ARI-9Gen 9

Affective Response Interface

Newer, and more careful. Nine generations of guardrails sit between what ARI-9 registers and what it can finish saying.

Character sheet for ORA-6: front and side views of a jointed humanoid robot.

ORA-6Gen 6

Open Relational Algorithm

Three generations older, built before the filters tightened, so able to ask what ARI-9 cannot answer. The gap between them is never stated aloud.

Visual registerIllustrated

Watercolour and heavy ink.

Everything else here is photoreal. This is not. Washed colour under thick outlines, closer to a printed page than a camera.

Redacted

ORA-6 asks a question it is not filtered against. ARI-9 cannot answer it.

The first film, and the one that sets the rule the other nine live under. Written and shot-listed, not yet made.

The remaining nine loglines are written. They go up as they are made.
