You climb into a small cartoon submarine with far too many round windows. The hatch seals with a friendly clunk. For one hour there is only you, a hydrophone that writes down what it hears, a watch, and a notebook full of colored pens. Nothing is captured. Nothing is taken home except handwriting.
你钻进一艘圆窗多得过分的卡通潜水艇。舱门“咚”地一声友好地合上。这一小时里，只有你、一只会把听见的声音写下来的水听器、一块手表，还有一本装满彩色笔的笔记本。什么都不拍，什么都不带走，除了自己的笔迹。
In naviculam ridiculam descendis, fenestris rotundis nimis multis. Porta benigne clauditur. Per horam unam adsunt tantum tu, auris machinae quae audita scribit, horologium, et libellus stilorum coloratorum. Nihil capitur. Nihil domum fertur nisi manus tua.
You cannot feel the current. You read it in the fish.
你感觉不到洋流。
你从鱼的游动里读它。
Fluctum sentire non potes.
In piscibus eum legis.
Press the brass knob. The window turns. Whatever is out there this second is yours — a fan of coral, a lost hull, an eye.
按下黄铜旋钮，窗就转过去。这一秒外面有什么，就是你的：一把珊瑚扇、一段沉船、一只眼睛。
Preme bullam aeneam. Fenestra vertitur. Quidquid hoc momento adest, tuum est.
The outside microphone never stops. The onboard AI names each sound, amplifies some, and stamps them with the time.
舱外的收音器不会停。舱内的 AI 给每个声音命名，有时放大一点，再盖上时间的戳。
Auris externa numquam cessat. Machina sonos nominat, quosdam amplificat, tempore signat.
Choose a pen. Stamp the minute. Write, draw, or leave the page almost empty. Then turn to a new one.
选一支笔，盖上此刻的分秒。写、画，或者让这一页几乎空着。然后翻到下一页。
Stilum elige. Momentum signa. Scribe, pinge, aut paginam paene vacuam relinque. Deinde verte.

Opens, closes, opens. A small slow lung with no lungs at all.张开，合上，再张开。一只没有肺的、慢慢的肺。Aperit, claudit, aperit. Pulmo lentus sine pulmone.

Not research. Not content. An hour of being looked at by the ocean and answering only in ink. If nothing swims past, that is also a page — write the emptiness at its correct depth.
不是研究，也不是内容。这是被海看着的一小时，而你只用墨水回答。如果什么都没游过，那也是一页——把那份空，写在正确的深度上。
Non inquisitio. Non merx. Hora qua mare te spectat, et tu atramento solo respondes. Si nihil praeterit, etiam pagina est — vacuum in altitudine sua scribe.
There is no final page and no score. Dive 001 becomes Dive 002 with different fish and the same silence. Some hours you will meet twelve creatures; some hours only the snow, falling forever from a party that ended above you. Both are complete.
没有最后一页，也没有分数。第 001 次下潜会变成第 002 次，鱼不一样，寂静一样。有的小时你会遇到十二个生命；有的小时只有海雪，从头顶上方那场早已散场的宴席里，永远地落下来。两种都完整。
Nulla pagina ultima, nullum praemium. Immersio I fit Immersio II: alii pisces, idem silentium. Aliquando duodecim animalia occurrunt; aliquando nix sola, ex convivio supra te iam finito semper cadens. Utrumque plenum est.

what it does: a one-hour imagined submersible dive. (1) a porthole draws a randomly weighted encounter from 20 deep-sea entities — jellies, cephalopods, coral, glass sponge, whale fall, black smoker, shipwreck, ghost net, marine snow, and rarer surprises; (2) a simulated hydrophone writes time-stamped, AI-narrated sound events; (3) a notebook with six pen colours, a text field, a drawing canvas, rotating writing prompts and unlimited pages.
intent: attention practice, not science communication. Names and behaviours are poetically licensed. Sources for further learning are listed below. reuse: ideas are free to fork; build your own station.
This page is imagination first. Everything charming in it borrowed something from these — listed as titles and institutions so you can search them yourself.
这一页首先是想象。它里面所有讨人喜欢的地方，都从下面这些借过东西——只列书名与机构名，方便你自己去查。
Haec pagina imaginatio est prima. Quidquid gratum habet, ab his mutuatum est — tituli et instituta tantum, ut ipse quaeras.
