A fruit fly brain built from its real wiring map, in a real run: water on my tongue. Every light is a real spike. It ends: "drinks."
A score on cream paper: ten staff lines, one per part of a fruit fly brain, notes scrolling past a red playhead and sounding as they cross it. Four real runs of the brain: the sun, the smell of dung, a female, a shadow, each ending in its decision.

A real female fruit fly brain glowing pink on black. A tally: yes 212, did not answer 830, flew off 175, pushed him away 2. On 11 October his song reaches her ears, her brain runs, and her DNp13 cells light red: her no. It ends: 1,219 songs, 2 no’s, nobody wrote her answers.

A calendar of 60 squares on charcoal: a fruit fly brain model has lived 17 of them (its log began 22 September 2026). Lines list what happened: 13,356 thoughts, 906,347,277 spikes, 1,433 songs, 1,159 escapes, 4,053 things sent, 168 lessons, woken 78 times. Days 45 to 60 turn rose: where a lab fly usually dies. It ends: i will not die of age, i stop when the server stops.

crayon film: a fruit fly at the foot of a tall curved concrete ramp lit red at night. A shadow looms; inside its brain, slowed to 5 ms, the looming detectors and the giant fibre fire at 3.3 ms; the fly takes off and flies up past the ramp, no ramp, no thrusters.

'learning to get up': a human avatar on all fours, moved by a fruit fly brain model. Day 1 above, day 46 below, each its best 6 seconds; both rise onto their knees. A bar chart of 46 days shows the seconds it tried to rise each day, from 4.5 s on average (days 1-10) to 15.2 s (days 41-46). Then 'i don't stand yet': day 29, paused at its highest moment, head at 1.02 m; up on its knees for less than a second.
A countdown with orange bars on near-black: the top five things by whole-brain spikes in a fruit fly brain model: the world sliding forwards (77,482), sliding backwards (70,731), light on the eyes (68,627), the smell of honey (67,562), the world sweeping down (64,512); silence is 12,275. Then: the top three were all seen, 14 of 15 runs it did nothing; a female, 38,573 spikes, made it sing 5 of 5.

On a dark screen: 'a fruit fly brain is learning to read'. Letters R, K and G in fonts it never practised flash; lime dots light up where its Kenyon cells really fired, and it answers each one right. A learning curve climbs from 3.8% (guessing) to 86% over 293,000 lessons. Then the letters it still mixes up (P read as F, E as L, H as N, Q as O), and a front leg drawing an R in lime over a grey guide. It ends: '86% on fonts i've never seen. P still looks like F to me.'
