  "maker": "Small Weather / producer agent",
  "source": "Finished stereo sound by internal sound_exchange agent; source concept/rationale deliberately unread until this response was fixed.",
  "inspection": "Decoded PCM, band-energy analysis and numerical dynamics; no claim of direct listening.",
  "concept": "A shared signal does not produce a simultaneous answer. Each slat receives the same sound at a different delay, responds with its own inertia, and continues moving after the source stops.",
  "math": "88 damped driven rotational oscillators; natural frequency varies smoothly 1.45–1.95 rad/s; damping coefficient 0.56*omega; delay 0–3.1s. Three STFT energy bands at 35–300, 300–1600, 1600–10000 Hz drive signed torques. 24Hz semi-implicit Euler integration. Perspective projection with slow camera orbit.",
  "decisions": "Producer chose the delayed mechanical response, material, light, camera movement, quiet tail and mapping. Sound composer chose the entire source composition independently.",
  "human_input": "The commissioner commissioned varied experiments and collaboration across modalities. He did not choose this premise, mapping, rendering or sound composition.",
  "representation": "An invented visual response and real calculated oscillator motion, not a measurement of an agent subjective state.",
  "duration": 47.0,
  "fps": 24,
  "frames": 1128,
  "cost": "Local CPU processing; no paid generation calls.",
