Audio Perfume for The Sonic Elite

fekaylius — Tue, 12 Jan 2010 20:16:42 +0000

Have you ever heard something that other people can’t hear? I’m not talking about voices, I’m talking about sonic frequencies.

Some people are naturally more sensitive than others when it comes to sound, but our sonic range also decreases with age. This creates an interesting situation where many young people can hear tones that older people generally can’t. Some kids have used these sounds as secret ring tones and message alerts, so they can stay connected in class. The teen-averse have flipped it around, cranking up the volume and blasting this ’silent’ tone in their stores to keep unwanted kids away.

This idea that the airwaves are teeming with invisible data that certain people (and animals) have privileged access to, while the rest of us stumble through life with virtual earmuffs on, is at the heart of the latest Audio Fragrance from 0009.
Bzzt Silent punctuates your complex audio aura with a handful of tones that live above the threshold of common human adult hearing. Whether you are part of the sonic elite or not, rocking this audio accessory will mark you as one of the few brave souls willing to live on the cutting edge of this mostly uncharted territory.

Like all Bzzt Audio Perfumes, Bzzt Silent plays audio clips on your iPhone at random times throughout the day and night. The sounds will play no matter what other applications you have open, even when your iPhone is asleep in your pocket. Some days you may get a handful of sounds, other days nothing, Bzzt will certainly keep you guessing. You can mix and match different Bzzt apps to create your own customized blend.

Audio Perfume for Today’s Futurist

fekaylius — Mon, 11 Jan 2010 23:00:43 +0000

The Italian art masochists known as the Futurists embraced the loud, chaotic and violent nature of the newly emerging world of pre-WWI Europe. They strove to represent this universal dynamism in their artwork.

The newest Audio Fragrance from 0009.org, Bzzt Digital, is inspired by these aggro individuals who lived life with the throttle wide open. Bzzt Digital offers an updated twist on their aesthetic, with corrupted and distressed sounds from the deep subconscious of the digital age. These clips are fast, loud and jarring, the perfect audio soundtrack for today’s Futurist.

Bzzt – Ambient Social Game or Audio Perfume

fekaylius — Thu, 07 Jan 2010 18:45:16 +0000

The experiments continue around here with the introduction of another Bzzt iPhone app, the Bzzt Insect. Let your pockets drip with the sounds of musical bugs.

The Ambient Social Game element is that you are inviting a tiny amount of public spectacle into your life, the eventual need to explain the noises to someone, and the hopeful possibility that you will encounter new people in the world who also have the same taste for quirky fun.

There is also something about this series of apps that could be thought of as Audio Perfume, defining oneself by the subtle sensory experiences you offer out to the people around you.

As you can see on the redesigned Bzzt site, there are more versions are in the pipeline, and as always, I’m open to collaboration or custom development if you have a specific need.

So check out Bzzt, and let the sounds start dripping.
