Fifteen curves, each traced by a point moving in two dimensions — and each one turned into sound. Pitch follows y(t), stereo position follows x(t).
They run in order from perfectly periodic to completely chaotic. Listen to the melody: while the curve repeats, the melody repeats. When the curve stops repeating, so does the sound.
Nothing here is decorative — every number on screen was measured before it was drawn
