I was raised by a gentle Catholic and a gracious Buddhist. My mother was also a Yogi instructor and from her I learned about the way and the three treasures.

She showed me not only how to breathe correctly but also that all purpose was to become one with the unplanned rhythms of the universe called "the way" or "Dao".

She said that life was a hunt for three treasures.

All of them magnificent and very hard to find.

And how do I find them? I asked my Mom.

Don't look too hard or you will never find. Don't think too hard. Be simple and spontaneous, she said.

As I think about my childhood and a way to share a Manresa moment of reflective meditation, I keep a mind of spontaneous quality, in truthfulness and serenity. Underneath are three thoughts, three moments, three animations which arrived in a moment of study and experimentation. Each one of these rest upon my research on particles generation and emission, across physics models and procedural animation. Each one deals with frequencies, amplitudes and phases. Curves. We are all surrounded by phenomena expressed through curves.

The audio in each animation comes from frequencies, vibrations and signals generated in outer space. I have used a combination of sounds emitted by comets, planets, stars and satellites. This is a collection of tracks that NASA has shared at Sound Cloud.

I wish my Buddhist Mom was here to enjoy these moments and probably remind me with her luminous smile that since words are not constant, no Dao that can be conveyed using words can be.
