## Core Metaphor
The body is a musical instrument playing light. Each joint is a string, each gesture is a chord, each session is a composition.

4-Layer Architecture

### Layer 1: Gesture Vocabulary (20 named signatures)
| Gesture | Motion Pattern | Visual Identity |
|---------|---------------|-----------------|
| The Reach | Arms extending outward | Aurora curtains stretching |
| The Drop | Sudden squat/crouch | Beat Drop explosion, particles scatter |
| The Flow | Continuous smooth motion | Ink dissolution, liquid trails |
| The Pulse | Rhythmic bounce | Plasma rings pulsing with beat |
| The Freeze | Sudden stillness | Crystal formation, geometric snap |
| The Spiral | Torso rotation | Fibonacci spiral tightening |
| The Wave | Sequential joint movement | Ocean caustics propagating |
| The Burst | Explosive arm throw | Ember Storm, fire particles |
| The Sway | Gentle hip oscillation | Nebula drift, slow cloud movement |
| The Shield | Arms crossed/compact | Void Pulse, inward energy |
| The Crown | Arms raised overhead | Neon Rain falling from above |
| The Ground | Low stance, floor work | Mycelium tendrils spreading |
| The Snap | Sharp isolated movement | Cyber grid flash, digital glitch |
| The Breath | Chest expansion/contraction | Deep Breath, particle scale pulse |
| The Mirror | Symmetrical arm movement | Aurora Frost, bilateral symmetry |
| The Storm | Fast chaotic movement | Ember Storm + lightning composite |
| The Bloom | Opening from compact | Sakura Fall, petals unfurling |
| The Fade | Decreasing energy | Snowfall, gentle settling |
| The Rise | Building intensity | Golden Spiral, expanding warmth |
| The Release | Post-peak relaxation | Cosmic Dust, dissipating glow |

### Layer 2: Emotion Mapping (replaces genre mapping)
| Emotion | Energy Range | Color Temperature | Bloom | Speed | Preset Category |
|---------|-------------|-------------------|-------|-------|-----------------|
| Joy | 0.5-0.8 | Warm gold-orange | 1.8 | 1.2 | ambient/organic |
| Intensity | 0.8-1.0 | Hot red-white | 2.5 | 1.5+ | explosive |
| Calm | 0.0-0.2 | Cool blue-violet | 2.0 | 0.3 | calm |
| Tension | 0.3-0.6 rising | Sharp green-cyan | 1.5 | 0.8 | geometric |
| Release | 0.6-0.3 falling | Soft pink-lavender | 1.2 | 0.5 | atmospheric |

### Layer 3: Temporal Dynamics
- Echo Delay: 2-second motion echo creates visual counterpoint
- Stillness Crystallization: After 3s of stillness, particles snap to geometric lattice
- Transition Morphing: Style changes lerp over 1.5 seconds, never instant cut
- Anticipation: Rehearsal engine predicts 2s ahead via :9406 bridge, pre-loads next style
- Memory: The system remembers your last 10 gestures and weights the visual response

### Layer 4: Body Ratio Parameters
- Arm spread / shoulder width → spiral tightness (Fibonacci preset)
- Hip height / standing height → color temperature (lower = warmer)
- Wrist velocity asymmetry → particle attractor imbalance
- Torso angle → orbit tilt (camera auto-rotate axis)
- Knee bend depth → bloom radius (deeper = more glow)

Production Output Mapping

Every layer maps identically across all outputs:

## MLX Model V2 Architecture
Input: 16-dim MotionSignature + 5-dim emotion history
Output: emotion_id (5 classes) + gesture_id (20 classes) + continuous_params (bloom, speed, color RGB)
Training: From rehearsal trials with feedback scores as reward signal
