rhythm

a polyrhythm orrery. six planets, one bar — each orbit divides the same cycle by its own integer, so 3-against-4-against-5 is just three moons with different years. every ratio here is also a pitch interval an octave-shift away: the orbits are a chord, slowed down ten thousand times. align sends every planet home to twelve o'clock.
