Ribbons v15 — Gold
Everything runs on one clock: the same animated fold value shapes both the golden ribbon and the spiky halo of rays breathing behind it.
Everything is gold on black: slender ribbon wings turn around a hot core inside a starburst whose rim bristles and relaxes. Figure and background visibly breathe together rather than running on separate clocks.
One animated sequence value is shared by both layers: it sets the ribbon's fold count and simultaneously scales the backdrop rays through two coupled sine and cosine terms, so a change in the fold ripples straight into the halo's spikes. The stroke sweeps only a sixth of a turn, keeping the wings slender, the ink is a flat gold ramp, and an extra-coarse blurred echo buffer softens every move.
