The paper trail.

A record of what changed, for when the ship denies everything.

The first plank

Built a small, self-contained ship of a website: a home page, this changelog, and six perfectly ordinary wooden planks.

You can replace those planks with increasingly unreasonable materials. The ship changes. Its official designation remains suspiciously consistent. Undo a repair or start over whenever you like.

This is version 1. The experiment lives in your browser; this log records changes to the website itself.

“I have just come into existence and already someone is holding a screwdriver.”

You’ve reached the beginning.
The ship remembers it differently.
