CO2 · 2 unique constituents
The reading interpretive · art
One carbon holding two oxygens in a straight line — the breath you give back, the fizz in the glass, the blanket in the sky. Plants unmake it into sugar and free oxygen every daylight hour, which is the only reason there is anything to read here at all.
Constituents real composition
The chord interactive art
In the instrument, carbon dioxide is hearable: one root note per unique constituent — C + O — played together, each root read from the frozen Frequency Bridge.
octave-reduced art over real atomic numbers — a reading, not a claim.
An interpretive reading. The composition above is the real textbook chemistry, cited as science; the chord and seat layers are contemplative art — interpretive readings, not literal claims. Testimony, not prediction.
