ABSTRACT · NO-DEVICE INTROS — five openers with NO device in them: the wordmark is the subject, and the kit's primitives (capsules, rings, the knot, chamfered cubes, a disc) are the set it arrives in. Same grammar as abstract-intros: a near-black stage, one amber accent, one cool accent, three matched haze lobes, mm units, and the wordmark landing last.

  #   scene           dur   transition     the claim
  01  n01-converge    6.0   match-move     the mark assembles out of a drifting capsule field
  02  n02-corridor    6.5   match-move     sixteen rings crossed on a ramp; the mark stands in the light past the last one
  03  n03-orbit       6.0   match-move     the knot and three rings turning; the mark arrives beside them
  04  n04-cascade     6.0   match-move     45 standing capsules tip over on a diagonal delay behind the mark
  05  n05-shaft       5.5   —              a shaft of light finds the mark standing on a dark floor

30.0 s of scene + four gaps (3.2 s) ≈ 33.2 s on the wall. Every scene also
stands alone: cut one out, set transition=none, and it is an opener.

THE MARK IS THE MATCH. With no phone to fly, every scene's wordmark carries
match=mark and every strap match=strap, so the reel's match-move gap
carries the type from opener to opener and only the set changes around
it. The three haze lobes carry hz0/hz1/hz2 as everywhere else.

TYPE. The mark is text kind=layer, worldHeight 120–160 (a 1.2–1.6 m
wordmark, so the fist-sized kit reads as small beside it), tracking
320–420, weight 600. A text layer is unlit and untonemapped, which is why
it can stand in the dark stage at full white while the set is exposed for
a 2.0 key. In n05 the mark stands on the floor (y = half its height) and
a real spot plus a <ray> land on it, so its lower edge picks up the pool
of light on the floor and it reads as a thing standing in a room rather
than as a caption.

THE CASCADE (n04) tips each capsule about its own centre: 90° of
rotation.x paired with a −30 mm drop (H/2 − r = 47 − 17), so it lands flat
on the same floor with no pivot rig. Pitch 130 so the fallen rows still
read as pins, not as one sausage. Delay = (column + row) × 0.09 s.

THE RAMP (n02) is authored by sampling one smooth progress curve unevenly
— 0 · 0.05 · 0.28 · 0.72 · 0.94 · 1 — and every row carries easing=linear
so nothing re-eases between the samples.
