For this species, death is not the end of life but a return to its beginning. After sinking to the seafloor and beginning to decompose, its cells can reorganize into a new polyp, from which new jellyfish eventually bud, forming a continuous cycle of renewal. As I attempted to simulate their movement through mathematical equations, I found that every precisely tuned parameter and every subtle interaction between individual motions pointed beyond rational calculation, evoking a sense of wonder at the contingency through which life emerges. The sound in this work is generated directly from the jellyfish's tentacles and movement. The coordinates of every tentacle tip are translated into sine waves, unexpectedly producing sparse, ethereal sonic textures reminiscent of the solitude of the deep sea.
