Once the collapse initiated, the mass of failing floors overwhelmed the floors below, causing a progressive series of floor failures which accelerated as the sequence progressed.
The result is a dreamy, autumn-hued abstraction of the city, which gets more lifelike as the sequence progresses.
Therefore, as the random sequence progresses, it must recycle previous values.
Although astronomers agree that the diagram shows the sequence in which stars evolve, they argue about which way the sequence progresses.

The sequence of silica-rich volcanic rocks commonly progresses from:
The sequences progress through each generation:
