Why it works
The blank opening becomes a drawn identity and star field by 3 seconds, so the viewer watches the answer take shape. The completed timescale diagram in shot 18 and the particle clustering in shots 76–94 turn long verbal explanations into spatial steps; speech covers 88% of the film, so each drawing is timed to a phrase.
