A ten-minute geological drift
Three or four of Karel's recordings are held as simultaneous strata — looped, slowly spectrally reshaped, and swapped over ten minutes. A slow form scaffold moves the mass every half-minute or so; a fast per-frame process keeps it liquid. When a layer fades it leaves a faint residue that can resurface minutes later, so the piece remembers every layer it has passed through. It plays itself.
Press begin, then let it drift. It needs no further input.
