Multi is a (very) simple application for making and sending faces. Working from a limited stock of punctuation glyphs, Multi tirelessly assembles various configurations. Launch Multi. Tap the screen anywhere to stop. Tap again to start. Tap and drag on the right side to adjust the speed (a line appears under your finger — up for faster, down for slower). Save a particular face by pressing and holding your finger on the screen until you see a flash (like a screenshot). Continue holding down to text it to a friend. You can also double tap to send a text. * Italian designer Enzo Mari spent the year 1957 drawing an apple. The result, La Mela, is a large silkscreen print produced as an artist multiple by Danese Milano continuously since. Mari lavished time on the drawing, preparing it for industrial manufacture by abolishing detail and reducing it to an essential form. He was not looking to draw AN apple, but rather THE apple — a perfect symbol designed for the serial logic of industrial reproduction. In place of the unique work of art and its privileged market, multiples used contemporary manufacturing to produce many exact copies circulated as consumer products. Multi reconsiders this process 50 years later, as software coding has replaced the industrial assembly line. At any one moment, this software presents one of 1,728 possible arrangements, each a face built from minimal typographic furniture. Instead of many identical copies from one design, Multi is one original set of instructions constantly producing alternative versions.

Say It Backwards app is a sound recorder app with one goal - record a sound and play it back in reverse. Thats it. Such simple tool gives you enormous possibilities. I personally play with my kids and entertain my friends. Check how "NOW" becomes "ONE", and if you practice a little you can learn to say short sentences backwards. Listening to known songs, jingles or other sounds can be surprising. Give it a try with English words: "easy", "Funny enough", "Amor Roma", "say yes" - those are all phonetic palindromes. While making this app I have realized there is a whole conspiration theory about backmasking - give it a search on Youtube or Wikipedia - you will be suprised. My favourite one is "Oh no, you're playing the record backwards. Watch out, you might ruin your needle" ... at least using Say It Backwards app you will not ruin your needle :) Please take a note there are ads being served in a form of a beautiful banner on the top of you screen. If for some reason you prefer to avoid it either purchase full version of my app or board a plane as the ads will not get to you while you are in airplane mode. I do hope you will decide to buy a full version though. Planes do emit tonnes of carbon dioxide you know ... :)
