The cube keeps moving.
The point marks the origin of a journey that began 500,000,000 years ago. The line is the trace of the distance already covered. At its end, the square represents a cube imagined as a moving vessel of sound memories. Click or tap the cube to hear one at random.
The line’s length on screen is diagrammatic; the movement is calculated in physical units. The work does not restart when the page is opened: the cube’s position is recalculated from the time elapsed since its original departure.
