AWESOME!
Thanks
It’s perfect, ngl
I have been doing so much research just to replicate, Aphex Twin and few other in some way for a year now and this is a good developer.
So cool
This is mesmerizing, playing with audio scans of what you see. Would love to see this as an OBS plugin
A Close-to-Perfect App From a Stellar Developer
Alexander Zolotov’s apps are a joy to use, and I have been doing so for years. The pixelated retro GUIs of his keystone apps are a welcome and refreshing - and somewhat comforting for us older folks - change from the sleek GUIs of Moog, Korg, and Sugar Bytes’s counterparts (nothing against them, though). The necessary learning curve isn’t too steep, and almost presents a challenge to being able to use them to create music, which makes them fun as well.
Among them is Nature, which takes full advantage of the brand new dimension offered by mobile devices for sound crafting and music-making. Nature uses photo-input and interprets it into neat atonal and chaotic sounds that can be manipulated, agitated, modulated, and mitigated by the built-in oscillator.
Its only failing, and the most frequent thing I find myself criticizing, is its lack of AUv3/Audiobus/Inter-app support (as of July 2023, the time of this writing). Even though you can record your creations in realtime, being able to patch Nature through vocoder programs to be able to make wild modulations live would be an unprecedented development potentially leading to entirely new avenues to sounds never heard before.
I hope this becomes a standard in a future update. In the meantime, don’t forget to check out Zolotov’s other killer apps SunVox, Fractal Bits, and PixelWave.

OMG: Astounding real time camera -> ANS encoder! 🔊
Alexander Zolotov never ceases to blow my mind with his original, innovative and creative code play! This app is so overlooked, but truly wonderful! If you have his Virtual ANS this is an *essential* addition as it uses the ANS engine but driven by the optical input of the camera (data stream). Simple in concept; but infinitely variable in output potential (e.g. a visual world to ANS synthesis encoder) and you can interact with various parameters in real time too. Then there’s the ability to patch it into other systems (signal chains, FX, visual input systems et al). Just brilliant as ever - thank you for this!

Unique sonification app!
I dig this app and pretty much everything by this developer. I would love to see something like this that can output midi, too.
Thanks and cheers!
Thanks and cheers!
Simple, Intuitive, Brilliant!
Nature is a little jewel of synthesis using environmental input (camera). It is fun and easy to use with a delightful range of sounds generated. The record function lets you port samples to other uses. Zolotov is a genius.
Issue with position on screen
I love this app, but since iOS 11 it appears positioned incorrectly once it is launched and only shows up in half of the screen. Is a fix or update on the way?
Update: thanks for the quick response - looking forward to the update. A great developer, Virtual ANS is also a fav.

Response from developer
This bug will be fixed as soon as possible. Sorry for inconvenience...
Don't you wonder sometimes, 'bout sound and vision?
Lovely sonic weirdness. The app looks like something The Man Who Fell to Earth might've scavenged from his space ship. Strangely addictive and a whole lot of fun. I'd love it if this was made AudioBus friendly.

Extrapsycheledisch
So muss sich ein Alien fühlen, das auf unsere Erde kommt und sie heimlich erforscht und in einem Gedankenstrom kommentiert, oder in Erinnerung eingefroren. Selbst trivial Gegenständen werden zu fantastischen akustischen Erlebnissen.
Bestens geeignet für Noise, Drones uns SoundScapes.
Eine Wunsch aber noch, bitte darum auch die Front-Camera nutzen zu können, wie bei Vosis. dann könnte man es auch als “Theremin” benutzen.

This is a weird one.
I love what this app does. It puts different sound filters over the viewer in order to "interpret" the image across the spectrum in different ways. You can then record the sound and paste it wherever you want. EXCELLENT for samples and weirdness.
However, I would like to be able to take the picture as well, and load it into virtual ANS without having to go through an IP. That feature would make it 5 stars.

I don't get it...
Record doesn't work with iOS8? No AudioCopy, AudioShare, DropBox support? A total waste of time and money.
works fine!!!
perfect for soundscapes generated by camerainput. many parameters to control...
i like it!!!
i like it!!!
Very Cool for FX and up/down sweeps!
This app has a lot of potential! I recorded lots of the sounds I got on my phone, threw them into Ableton and further processed the sound into something that I can use for a song. I think it's cool to say that "this sound came from the TV in my hotel in Florida".
Zolotov = InstaBuy-!
Thanks for another great one, A-!
