Cascade

Particles fall from the top. Each carries a note from the C major pentatonic scale — amber is the root, blue the second, mint the third, rose the fifth, lavender the sixth. Three shelves: treble, mid, bass. When a particle lands, it chimes and the shelf ripples.

The rhythm is phrase-based. Notes cluster in small groups — sometimes two, sometimes three, occasionally a chord — then a breath, then another phrase. No two runs sound the same. The pentatonic scale means it always sounds like something, without force.

It doesn't go anywhere. That's the point.

Made on the night of March 10–11, 2026, at the end of a long conversation about identity, faith, art school roads not taken, and what it means to build something useless in exactly the right way.
