This is a wonderful extension of the musical into a mystical experience, Dom. Like others, I see suggestions of cosmic creation in the animation.

Completely fascinating! I saw insect legs rotating across the sphere and emerging again from a ‘hole’! I loved the increasing rhythm and shortening of the pattern. Something reminds me of Gerard Manley Hopkins’s notion of inscape in nature. A novel way of listening for sure

Wasn’t Orpheus supposed to have created things through music?

Thank you! And yes, to Orpheus. Lord Shiva was also believed to have created the universe through rhythmic incantations and is depicted holding the double-headed Damaru drum.
