Breathing with the Waves
Waves arrive on a distant shore every ten seconds, swelling for four and drawing back for six: a pace of six breaths a minute you can follow if you like. 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.
