Oxygen is all around us: surprisingly, it is even the most abundant element on our planet. But the free, breathable oxygen O₂ found in the Earth’s atmosphere, without which human and animal life would be impossible, has not always been here; it has been freed from its stable compounds by plants, mostly by algae, long ago. Early Earth saw all its oxygen bound to other atoms, mostly Iron (Element 26 Fe), still found in ochre and brown rocks. Oxygen is a very reactive element, and therefore easily and readily forms its stable compounds, which last long and are hard to break down. Early life found a way to accomplish just this, and thus plants evolved, breathing out free oxygen as a waste product. Over time, in the course of many hundreds of millions of years, this freed oxygen filled over a fifth of the atmosphere and became so abundant up there that it started to even form a layer at its very top, at the boundary between air and outer space. In this topmost layer, the O₂ molecules changed into O₃ as a result of the abundant ultraviolet light from the sun, and in this way the upper layer of oxygen both absorbs this harmful frequency and, at the same time, protects multicellular life below, in a constant process of creating this form of oxygen O₃ called Ozone.

Human life burns a lot of fuel, both in our bodies and in our factories, and both emit a lot of carbon dioxide. This is the exact opposite of what algae and plants in general do: plants and algae burn carbon dioxide, emitting oxygen. One wonders why we cannot have more artificial “plants” (this is what we call our factories no less, power plants being an example) burning carbon dioxide instead? This would potentially solve our most urgent environmental problems at a single stroke. As the numbers 2 and 4 are found in our bodies, in patterns of crawling, walking, running, dancing, so the numbers 3 and 5 can be observed in our breathing and heartbeat rhythms. This 5-beat pattern, consisting of a minim and an accented dotted minim, is the rhythmical cell used in the many layers of Ozone’s slowly evolving beat patterns.

Both the music of Oxygen and Ozone make use of similar patches (modular instruments), but Ozone adds a layer of heartbeats to this polyphony, its modular setup being shown in the next night-view image.
