Your recording, as a spectral terrain you fly over
A hand-rolled STFT turns sound into a luminous landscape — time runs into the distance, frequency across the width, loudness into the ridges. A phase vocoder then reconstructs the audio in real time, slowly stretching and drifting it, so the terrain you see is exactly the sound you hear.

Tip: Karel can drop a Path piano track here — it becomes the terrain and the vocoder sings it back, stretched and drifting.
