One-line spiral engraving
A single spiral line winds out from the middle of a full moon and swells where the photo is dark, until a veiled musician and his guitar appear against it. Drawing the line is the whole animation.

Looks that sit near it
- ScratchboardThe same dune shot as white-on-black scratchboard etching.
- Marker diary comicFelt-tip panels on a lined notebook page that draw themselves in. Streaky fills miss the lines; the camera drifts from panel to panel.
- Banknote engravingFine parallel lines whose width carries the shading, spirograph rosettes and red serials on cream security paper. He swells until the note bends.
- Halftone press photosGrainy black-and-white halftone with flash bursts. The shots land as pages of a 1950s picture magazine, then a contact sheet with a red grease-pencil circle.
