# Ember Vortex Plume

A smoke vortex: log-spiral arms wound around an ember heart that never changes, the whole body advected by a domain-warped drift that closes on the loop. One spiral field under eight interpolated numbers, so the vortex morphs by deforming, not cross-fading, through four forms: dense ember bulb, wispy smoke plume, tight whirlpool, sparse filament nova. Bass thickens it, mid twists the warp, treble raises the fine detail. Rests as the smoke plume.
