Gradients and Settling
This page shows what happens when the same condition returns.
Each song acts as a stable condition. When it reappears in the archive, attention organizes itself — sometimes the same way, sometimes nearby.
Gradients
A gradient means attention is moving locally. It explores adjacent configurations rather than jumping randomly. Awareness or attachment may shift while the overall tendency remains stable.
Dominance Field
The bar at the top of the page shows where attention tends to organize along the attachment–detachment axis when this condition repeats.
Leftward positions indicate attachment-dominant tendencies.
Rightward positions indicate detachment-dominant tendencies.
Each marker represents an actual listening instance — not a prediction, score, or average. When multiple markers cluster together, it means attention has repeatedly organized in a similar region of the field.
When markers spread across nearby positions, it suggests a gradient: local movement within a stable range rather than random fluctuation or dramatic shifts.
The bar does not describe correctness or progress. It simply visualizes where repetition has placed attention over time.
Settling
When repetition produces the same structure again and again, attention has settled. This is not an achievement or endpoint — simply a stable way of organizing under familiar conditions.
This page does not predict, evaluate, or instruct. It only distinguishes movement from rest.
