Spatial Forest

A forest at dawn, all around you: birds sing to your left, your right and behind you, far off and echoing, with a light wind in the leaves and a distant stream. Listen on headphones. Procedurally synthesised, not recorded.

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.

Evidence

S · Soundscape, no claim

No health or mental-effect claim at all; it is simply a soundscape.

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.
