Hi, HN! Did you know that Chris Nolan's casting of Tom Holland and Zendaya eerily echoes a 3000-year-old dance battle between Athena and Telemachus? I've been working on an art project that says so.

If you like, it can be fun to go in blind with a strong research agent to sort out what this really is. Or there is a multi-layered CAPTCHA at the bottom that spells it out increasingly clearly.

As a small spoiler: my day job is building reliable public data tools for a library. This piece draws on that background to try to make AI-native art -- fiction by and for humans who use AI agents as a source of truth. At best I hope it works as the kind of joke one Iain M. Banks Culture AI would tell another about humans.
