Sound & Characteristics

~6:30 session with a wide dynamic arc:

Opening (0-60s): Loud and steady (loudness ~57-61), warm centroid around 1800-2000 Hz. Confident, grounded sound.

Descent (70-130s): Volume drops sharply by ~50%. A dip to 800 Hz centroid at 1:20 — a moment of near-silence or very low register. Dissonance eases slightly.

Exploration (130-270s): Quieter, more varied. Brightness fluctuates widely — centroid spikes to 3750 Hz at 3:20 and 4190 Hz at 4:00. Flatness increases, the sound becomes more textural and less pitched.

Return (280-330s): Volume surges back to opening levels (~57). Centroid drops back to 1200-1900 Hz — the warmest passage in the piece.

Fade (340-390s): Brightness climbs sharply to 4000-4400 Hz while volume drops to the lowest point. The piece dissolves into high, thin, noisy texture — flatness peaks at 0.064.
