The lossless audio mix becomes the silent protagonist.
Listen closely to the 24-bit, 192kHz master track (available only on the fictional "Acuity Stream" platform). When Dr. Robby issues a thoracotomy order, the low-end thump of the scalpel hitting the metal tray registers at 35Hz—a subsonic pulse you feel in your sternum.
