Interaction Ideas
Context-Aware Visibility
On Research page, ochre element fades/disappears (same color as bg). Creates dynamic "two elements" on each section page.
Scroll/Movement Triggers
Elements drift in constrained paths. Could be scroll-based, time-based, or cursor-proximity based. Never static.
Shape Metaphors
Circles = blending/overlap of interests. Squares = structured/institutional. Organic scatter = creative chaos.
Bounded System
Logo isn't a fixed mark but a "space" where three elements interact. Position changes but relationship stays constant.
