The map and the day

Base documents 02–03 · interactive artifact — Dublin, both routes, the time rail. The written documents are at the Itinerary and the World and the City. The artifact below is prior work, published verbatim. Open the artifact on its own page, full width. It is a standalone file. It carries no link back to this site.

Revised for narrow screens, 5 August 2026 — on a phone this map's place labels used to render at under three pixels and its markers were slivers, and choosing a place updated a panel below the fold without announcing itself. Recorded in the project's own playtest on 18 July and left standing because the file is published byte-verbatim by a binding rule. The author commissioned the revision; below 760 pixels the map and the time rail are each a sideways-scrolling region you can reach with a keyboard, the labels read at about twenty pixels, the markers are full-size targets, and choosing a place brings its panel into view. Nothing about the artifact changed on a larger screen. The written Itinerary carries the same material as continuous prose.
