T₁ FACING
Creation and Direct View
Tell me about something you made.
It can be finished or unfinished.
A project, a relationship, an idea, a mess.
Something you brought into being.
We read pattern, not content. Your words are encoded geometrically and then discarded.
T₂ MIRROR
Reflection and Projection
Now tell me about someone who bothers you.
Not why they're wrong.
What they do that gets under your skin.
The mirror shows what we project. This isn't judgment—it's geometry.
T₃ RECURSIVE
Pattern and Cycle
What keeps happening?
Different circumstances, same pattern.
The thing that shows up wearing new costumes
but feeling the same underneath.
Recursion isn't punishment. It's precision. The geometry keeps bringing you back to what needs attention.
T₄ SILENT
The Unspeakable
There's a question you're afraid I'll ask.
I'm not going to ask it.
But notice what came to mind.
Sit with it for a moment.
No response required. The silence has direction. τ₄ encodes what isn't said.
