PixiVisor is a tool for experimenting with the transmission of video over audio. It consists of two parts: Transmitter and Receiver. * Transmitter converts the low-resolution video (stream from camera, static image or GIF animation) to sound in real time, pixel by pixel (progressive scan). So any image or animation can be transferred to the other devices through the sound. * Receiver converts the sound (from microphone or Line-in input) back to video. You can set the color palette for this video, and record it to animated GIF file. Examples of use: * wireless Lo-Fi video transmission over audio; * video signal transmission through audio cable; you can then modify that signal by some mixers or audio FX processors; * VJing; * sound visualization; * searching for hidden messages in the ambient noise; EVP (Electronic Voice Phenomenon), ITC (Instrumental Transcommunication); * save any sound to animated GIF; * something else... Control keys: SPACE - play/stop (transmitter); 1,2,3,4,5,6 - slot select (transmitter); F - hide/show control panel; [ - previous palette (receiver); ] - next palette (receiver); I - invert (receiver);. N - normalize (receiver); 1,2 - contrast -/+ (receiver);. 3,4 - gamma -/+ (receiver); 5,6 - finetune -/+ (receiver); 7,8 - repeat X -/+ (receiver); 9,0 - repeat Y -/+ (receiver); LEFT,RIGHT,UP,DOWN - move the image (receiver).

Blozzum Bitty is a studio for sound-reactive visual art. Build a composition from shapes, effects, and color, bind anything to your music, and watch it move, bloom, and breathe in time with every beat. It's the lightweight member of the Blozzum family — light on your battery and instantly playable on iPhone and iPad, while still giving you real creative control. HOW IT WORKS Start from a shape. Add a stack of mutation and effects to twist, warp, and stylize it. Finish with a final stage of touch ups. Then make it listen: different audio metrics (RMS, Frame Peak, Kick, Beat, etc.) can drive most any parameter in the paths, mutations, and effects — you decide what reacts to what. Use the mic for live input, or load an audio file and loop through it. EASY ON YOUR DEVICE Blozzum Bitty runs a streamlined, single-layer engine with a gentle frame-rate cap, so it stays cool and battery-friendly during long sessions.
