Sediment

Your body conducts one of Karel's piano recordings — and every few seconds the current sonic and gestural state is deposited as a permanent horizontal stratum. The strata never dissolve; they stack into a growing core you rise through. By minute five the piece is a geological record of everything you did, not just what you're doing now.

Open your torso and reach wide to deposit thicker, brighter bands. No webcam needed — the demo conducts itself, and the column is already accreting behind this panel.
