## What is Ambit?

Ambit plays the invisible world around you as music.

Four instruments each listen to a different layer of your surroundings, from the radio waves in your room to the satellites passing overhead, and play together in one key and one tempo. A joystick in the middle mixes them: all four at the centre, just one at the edge.

AETHER: THE RADIO ROOM
Every phone, watch, earbud and speaker nearby broadcasts a Bluetooth signal several times a second. Each one becomes a voice with its own short melody on its own slow loop, in the spirit of Brian Eno's Music for Airports. Walk toward a device and it sings louder; turn around and the chord reshapes. Aether sets the tempo and the chord changes for the whole ensemble.

BELLWEATHERED: THE WEATHER
The live weather where you are, as a deep, pure bass drone. Falling pressure brings up the sub-octave, warmth and daylight open it up, cloud rounds it off, and wind makes it beat and breathe. Rain adds a hiss, snow a hush, and a bell rings on the solar hour. The sky sets the key.

LEITMOTIF: YOUR PHONE
Your iPhone is always talking. Leitmotif hears the rhythm of its own data traffic, never the content, and sings each habit as a short piano motif, so streaming, messaging and scrolling each get a tune of their own.

ORBITAKT: THE SATELLITES
Thousands of satellites cross your sky. A radar beam sweeps round from north, and every satellite near the zenith plays a drum as the beam passes it: navigation satellites a deep kick, Starlink metallic hats, the geostationary belt a gated hat, all through a dub echo. The ISS brings a gong when it passes over.

KEEPS PLAYING
Ambit plays in the background and on the lock screen, alongside your other audio. Tap "What is this?" in the app for the whole story.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No accounts, ads, analytics or tracking. Everything is computed on your iPhone. Your approximate location is used only to fetch the weather and to place the satellites in your sky.

Weather data by Open-Meteo.com. Satellite data from CelesTrak. Headphones recommended.

## Version history (last 2 releases)

### 1.1 — 2026-11-06

Leitmotif now listens to your phone’s life. Your steps, your pace, the charger, your headphones, Wi‑Fi and cellular, picking the phone up and setting it down all become short musical phrases. Walking adds a soft footstep line, and the mix leans with how you hold the phone. Two switches in Leitmotif’s settings turn the phrases and the movement on or off.

### 1.0 — 2026-11-02

No release notes.
