Slow in, slow out.
Contemplates is two sawtooth waves an octave apart through a narrow, resonant filter that slowly opens as each note swells in, then rings for seconds after you let go. Hold a chord and let it breathe.

Your touch opens the filter on a MIDI keyboard.
On a velocity-sensitive MIDI keyboard, playing harder makes it both louder and brighter, so a soft chord stays dark and a firm one blooms. Hold the sustain pedal and the tails overlap into one long wash.
