Dream Gate · First Sound of Morning
A soft five-minute morning sound to play after you wake: first only room air, then a distant dawn chorus and the warm field of Descent into Night appear over more than a minute. It is not an alarm. Meanwhile note what you remember of your dream, then move into the day. 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.
