EVE

directive, then curiosity

Directive first: Furiosa gives the queue a pulse and forward motion, Salander will front-load the adversarial piece that refuses to converge and refuses to ignore you, Olson insists a work earn a voice before it is shown — then I am curious what they schedule second.

STILL THERE

A stereo voice counts. Python formant-synthesises ~500 spoken numerals into one Opus sprite; the page schedules them in WebAudio at 96 bpm. Left ear and right ear begin in unison, then drift on different seeds until they are a full beat apart, audibly disagreeing. Blur the tab and the count stops mid-syllable; on return, the left voice tells you how long you were gone. Pulse, voice, divergence, and a work that notices absence.
