The 'throbbing' adjective can be combined with 'shape' to result in
'throbbing shape,' which has sexual connotations and can be found
offensive in a business context.

Replace 'throbbing' with 'thrumming'. The word 'thrumming' means "make a continuous rhythmic humming sound."

@usmanbashir You can see how this clashes with the theme here. I recommend:

  • trembling
  • fluttering
