0. THE HALL OF MIRRORS

Segment 0, The Hall Of Mirrors, is SFVFS’s preface, the document that sits before all 15 segments and tells a reader what they're entering before they read anything else.

In plain terms it does four things. It says what the programme is: an artist-led research project built with AI systems for nearly six months, where all claims are consistent with being true but not independently verified. It explains the inside inside problem: that everything in the programme, including the corrections, the audit, and the preface itself, was produced within the same frame it describes, which means external verification is the only honest next step. It records the 19 April 2026 audit findings: what was withdrawn, what was revised, what was confirmed. And it presents two honest readings of the programme's most striking feature,  that SFVFS appeared to locate its own void at exactly the point it predicted voids would be, without resolving which reading is correct, because that resolution requires someone outside.
