CITYCLOUDS

Sometimes we think about the new future of sound or searching for the new sound. Where can we find inspirations. What are the new inventions to create the perfect sound and which Music Machine can we use. These were the things who were Neurosonics Audiomedical Labs Inc.
thinking of, too. They made this cool video for us to demonstrate how the future about producing music could look like.

When they say you shouldn’t play music with your head, they don’t mean you should use your heart.
Instead, use other peoples heads.

Enjoy it!

Total mayhem..and what a tune! I remember listening to this one on a recent Modeselektor gig in WMF Berlin. Massive! Here´s what it says in the video description:

Honda’s U3-X is the Human Transportation Device From the Future!

The Honda U3-X, the automaker’s new personal mobility device, is a boom box-looking one-person unicycle-like scooter for office use, home mobility and travel on sidewalks without interfering with walkers.

This is less a replacement for a walker, as with Honda’s Walking Assistance Device, and more a Segway-style personal passenger vehicle. It uses an electric motor designed to provide free movement in all direction, stop, and adjust speed on the fly using shifting body weight. The trick is the Honda Omni Traction Drive System or the “HOT Drive System”.

Tomomi Sayuda thinks that:

The legendary scenes we all know from movies and funny office scenes shaped up in a chair.  You sit down, you Bum gets scanned and shortly afterwards you get your copy of the chairs view. Quite strange…but somehow creative and really funny!

His name Paul Neave -  interactive designer of Neave.com. Hes been using Flash for over 10 years both with Neave.com and for design agencies in Manchester and London, and has been making computers do silly things for even longer.

Paul explains Neave.com as his personal interactive playground; a place where he can explore his ideas and try out risky experiments that he wouldn’t normally get the opportunity to make anywhere else.  He often spend his days pointing and gazing in wonder at the world around him, Neave.com allows him to turn his daydreams into reality.

Really tricky interactive site – check out the Television part, this is entertainment, like it!

Aaron Siegel is a transdisciplinarian with a concentration in computational information design. He developed this little Audio Mixer which i really enjoy playing around with… For those who don´t know how about the components of electronic music this is a neat way to find out.
He´s got plenty of Projects all about data visualization on his website – Check it out on datadreamer.com.

Enter the Audio Mixer

Have you ever heard of Kutiman? No?! It´s the guy that produced an entire Album just from samples he collected on youtube through out the web.
He obtained great results and his songs are really worth listening…

In this case it is called Bb 2.0, and represents a collaborative music and spoken word project conceived by Darren Solomon from Science for Girls.

The videos on the site can be played simultaneously — the soundtracks will work together, and the mix can be adjusted with the individual volume sliders.
Videos have been selected from many awesome submissions from many awesome people.

Try it here!

Good afternoon guys,

I found something for the fans of visual irritations. A tool where you can insert any youtube link, which then gets tiled into several small squares and played with some delay.
A nice effect which you can be seen here:
