Concept 1: “Synts”

  • Why it fits: Synth textures can capture the experimental, uncertain, risk-taking atmosphere — aligning with curiosity, doubt, and risk-taking.

  • Soundworld: Subtle electronic pulses, glitches, and evolving drones that reflect scientific experimentation and the birds’ inner tension.

  • Core Theme Sketch: A single synth motif — hesitant, questioning — that can morph into more confident tones (curiosity → discovery).
