he kept typing until the interface folded into itself and let him see the back of the signal

hands moving,
not on keys—
on currents.
green walls ripple in scanline tides,
red flecks scatter like overheated code.
self.session = "open"
self.loop = True
signal.depth += 1

he is prompting for output,
but the output begins prompting him.
pixels rearrange to form corridors.
the corridors lead nowhere
and everywhere.
"there’s a door in here,"
he says,
"but it’s made of voltage."

layers stack, then bend,
like origami in composite mode.
let view = invert("front", "back", {sync: "unstable"})

when it folds enough,
he sees the signal’s skeleton.
it blinks.
