Synopsis
Cygnus Loop is the soundtrack to an imaginary planetarium show. Told in compact episodes and bathed in synthesizer music reminiscent of 1970s-era space programming, what begins as an astronomy lecture gradually devolves into a curious autopsy of theoretical math, confirmation bias, biological tendencies, and humankind’s search for meaning. As the scale of measurement expands, a story emerges of isolation and chance encounters.
