About

THE WOR[L]D

Read full description

Description THE WOR[L]D is a generative audiovisual experience where random word combinations “generate” a world. Watch it evolve, or interact and shape it with touch and sound. Three modes • TOUCH: Tap to trigger sound and particle reactions. • BUG: An autonomous “bug” moves around the screen and affects the world over time. • BRICK: A brick-breaker sequence runs autoplay and shifts the world (no manual gameplay required). Microphone input (optional) Turn the mic on to make particles react to the sound around you. It’s designed to coexist with other music apps so you can use it like an audio visualizer while playing your own music. Mix & match styles Combine multiple VISUAL and SOUND styles freely to build your favorite world. Privacy No personal data is collected or transmitted. Microphone input is processed in real time on-device and is not recorded, stored, or sent to any server.
