Song

Most mobius patterns are simple signal generators, emitting a single wave, or, in the case of infusions or shades, vibrant, yet short displays.

The kind of pattern that constitutes a song is something else entirely. Not only are they many orders of magnitude larger than their lesser kin, they are also many orders of magnitude more complex. Translated to music, at least according to those that are formed of their binding, the resulting melody would last weeks.

Songs do not remain independent for very long. They seek out a compatible human, and merge with them, forming a new entity that is not truly either being, called a striatvari.
