Every build in the film

  1. The first request

    Sep 4, 9:32 pm: Greg asks Astra, in a Codex terminal, to build a 3D model of the club.

  2. The whole studio in 3D

    A walkable model of 19 spaces, built from photos and video, with a measure tool.

  3. Rehearsal Room 2

    Renders, a true-size furniture planner, a 3D view, a priced budget and an install guide.

  4. Music

    Mini Producer Studio, Franklin's Tower rebuilt for the dance floor, and Shakedown Street as house.

  5. The system around it

Who built what

What Astra did, and what Claude did

GPT-6 Astra, through Codex

  • The whole-studio 3D model and its measure tool.
  • Its own Rehearsal Room 2 design: renders, planner, 3D, budget, install guide.
  • Mini Producer Studio, the Franklin's Tower rebuild and its films.
  • The Shakedown Street house rework and its A/B page.
  • The Control Room admin redesign and the Room for Revision proposal.
  • Judge room reviews of Claude's nightly rule proposals.

Claude

  • A competing Rehearsal Room plan, which a review picked for the physical build.
  • The handoff pack Astra started from, and the original Mini Producer.
  • The image briefs. The pixels come from OpenAI's image tool run in Astra sessions.
  • This film and this page.

The 3D walkthrough and measure shots use the v27 whole-studio preview build. The live site runs the default view. Sources: Codex session records and Greg's prompt history.
