This application allows visitors to the "Swarming Lounge" installation to access its virtually augmented dimension, enabling them to display anthropomorphic characters evolving in a virtual scenario on their own mobile devices. Once equipped with the app, the user is able to access and interact with the sequence of the scenario’s events, designed in connection with the exhibition venue, where live dancer-performers are posted. In an intertwining of real and virtual situations, as well as in an inter-mixing of the two, visitors experience multiple shifting degrees of presences and micro-narratives.

GhostTube EVP is an advanced voice recorder for paranormal investigators and video creators to conduct EVP session (electronic voice phenomena). You can record regular voice recordings using only the microphone, or try our new experiment which combines microphone audio with audio signals modulated from interference detected by real sensors in your device. Advanced features exclusive for paranormal investigating include audio boosting so you don't miss any anomalies, audio tagging so you can tag moments of interest in your recordings, and voice activated system to make it easier to review your recordings for anomalies. GhostTube EVP provides a fully functional emulation of the discontinued DR60 voice recorder. As seen on numerous paranormal TV programs, these devices were discontinued in the 90s and the only way to get them is to spend thousands of dollars to buy one second hand from collectors. Our emulation closely matches the sample rate, audio boosting features and voice activated system (VAS) of the famed DR60, so now you can try it in your investigations risk-free without spending thousands of dollars online. Key features of GhostTube EVP: - Traditional EVP recorder - Interference modulator - DR60 emulator* - Audio tagging* - Adjustable sample rate - Voice activated system (VAS)* - Sound boost* - Instant playback - Scrubbable sound visualizer - Access to GhostTube paranormal community and database with details thousands of haunted places around the world* *Some features may require in app purchases or to create an account.

But you need to keep in mind that the afterlife is a theoretical concept. It is often categorized as paranormal because the phenomena is not supported or explained by the natural laws of science currently understood and accepted in the scientific community. Paranormal tools in general are designed to measure and react to changes in the environment only. As such, paranormal tools should never be relied on to make important life decisions, as a form of definitive communication, or to cope with grief or loss.
