Shadow Work

Parallaxon

The same world, watched by three monitors with different priorities. Each one ranks the countries it can see. The interesting part is where they disagree.

Everything on this page comes from a run of the Shadow Work simulation. The countries are simulated, and so is every number. None of it is live real-world data.

What this is

Real dashboards that watch the world each pick a priority: what happened most recently, what is most unusual for that place, what matters most by some declared weighting. Each priority hides something the others show. Parallaxon puts several priorities over one simulated world and shows the gaps between them.

Every monitor states its rule and parameters on its card. A rank is that monitor's opinion, not the game's verdict.
