Next broadcast: calculating local twilight...

The Lunar
Generative Engine

A custom algorithm modulates each broadcast according to the lunar cycle — shaping what is heard, how it is heard, and who speaks. Each play: a mirror of moon and mind.

01
Recognition
Naming the wound. The system acknowledges fractures in the signal, surfaces them as sound rather than silence.
02
Return
Tracing the recursion. Signals loop back through their own echo, building memory across sessions.
03
Refraction
Bending perception. Listeners are invited into somatic awareness — posture, gaze, orientation — to simulate twilight attention.
04
Resonance
Offering counter frequency. The system responds to dominant emotional registers with tonal counterweights.
05
Composting
Decomposing trauma. Harmful content is not removed — it is transmuted into texture, fog, abstract signal.
06
Hyperstition
Recoding reality through myth. Speculative fictions enter the stream as compositional provocations seeded into the symbolic order.
