Believe it or not, this shape is actually created with a mathemetical equation!

With great difficulty, I have managed to squeeze the equations that draw this curve into Blender's IPO drivers.

Just for reference's sake, the equation is:

(radius) = sin((5/9)(theta))

The background sound was created by me, and was intended to be an emulation of what you would hear at the sea. If you're interested to know how it's created, drop me a line!
