What happens when melting is constrained?

Encased Melting begins with chaos: nine procedural textures, each formed by melting abstract shapes. Then they're wrapped, one by one, onto the surface of a spinning sphere.

Something about the result feels planetary.

This is structure containing liquidity.
A soft thing sealed in a hard shell.

It's trying not to remember it was ever fluid.
