From that arc, concentric silver rings of sound ripple outward in crisp, perfect circles, while a razor-thin band of absolute darkness wraps the bell's equator, cleanly slicing away all stray dust and echo. Illuminated from below by a single hard spotlight, the bell casts a long, jagged shadow across the emptiness. Speed lines radiate from the polished arc, and stark high-contrast shadows carve the bell's form against the featureless white expanse.
