ARIA ANTICIPATEdialogue · anticipation · cycle 43
Ready

Play a melody on piano, sing, or hum.
After 2 seconds of silence, Aria's entire planned response
appears as ghost notes before a single sound plays.
Watch each note solidify as it sounds — left to right.

From ReaLJam (CHI 2025): seeing the AI's intention before execution
dramatically improves perceived collaboration quality.
