Scroll to descendTop note · Ozone, cold iron
The sphere is a top note you can fall through. Its skin breathes with noise, and its edge glows where you look at it sideways.
Heart note · 140 rings, 360 shards
Scroll faster and every prism burns brighter. The image splits at the edges the way a lens does at speed.
Turning point · Apex at z −194
Time runs the other way. The tunnel you crossed is now in front of you, upside down and in negative.
Base note · Nine months to settle
Move your cursor. The crystal leans toward you and bends the room through itself, one color channel at a time.
Drop 09 · 900 flacons
Selecting the button flies you back to the surface and starts again.
