Open Casket The Movie - testing the ripples as a stand-alone piece

 I've decided to make the ripple animation into a separate piece. I've cleaned up the shape of the body, and added logic to increase the amount of rain slowly, hold it, slowly decrease it, then hold it at zero so the water settles:

I've did a couple of simple test projections, and I really like it:

Next step is to do a few runs and stitch them together so you get a bit of variety in what you see if you stick around for a couple of cycles. I also need to think of 'real' names for this and for the original Open Casket... For the original I was think probably just "Gone", and for this, I'm tempted to reference a beautiful and famous quote from the movie Bladerunner - "All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain"
