abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz for iPhone

Create and control tiny sound-creatures in the shape of letters that react to gravity or each other and generate rhythms and soundscapes. Dive into a micro world of sounds, movement and touch. But beware! Using this app might change your daily reading and talking experience.
“abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz” is a sound toy, a performance tool and an art work in its own right. You can play with the letter-creatures and watch and listen to how they interact with each other or use them to produce soundscapes as you would with an electronic musical instrument. “abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz” blends art, biology, fun and physics to create a unique, dynamic and interactive sound ecology.
This app is the result of Jörg Piringer’s ongoing research into vocal sounds and their relation to dynamic typography in the form of performance, video and software art.
