Observe the ways sound patterns may be repeated or extended.
Repetition fixes attention on a single pattern; extension engages variation, leading to change and development suggestive of evolving movement. The former lends itself to hypnotic effects, but offers little in the way of increasing significance, while the latter sustains interest by remaining, to various degrees, formless.
