Stillness · Your Own Stillness · Wind and sparse resonance
A twelve-minute listen with the two families of sound you chose: wind and sparse resonance. Both sit at the same loudness and neither covers the other; let your attention move from one to the other whenever it wants. A piece of sound design with no claim of any effect.
The same recipe with another seed: the raindrops, the order of the birds or the path of the chords change; the rules and evidence level stay the same.

Compare with another sound
Hear both at the same loudness; drag the slider to the middle and they blend.
In the middle the two sounds truly blend; loudness is matched.
8 trials, half of them the same sound; get at least 7 right and the difference is audible. The result stays on this device.

S · Soundscape, no claim

This session isn't linked to any claim of effect.
A session's level is the weakest of its linked claims; it is never raised by a strong but unrelated claim.
