Ambient Timer
Read full descriptionHide full description
A timer that creates space — for stillness, and for deep focus. Paired with field recordings and ambient film — crafted by a single artist, not a sound library. Sounds and visuals by Chisato Ohori, whose work has been exhibited at Kunstpavillon, a historic contemporary art gallery in Munich. Set the ring. Press play. Let time pass. Optionally, pair your session with field recordings or ambient film — or keep it in silence. When the timer ends, a break mode continues the same atmosphere, so the transition from focus to rest feels natural. A minimal ring interface. A gentle bell to close each session. And a record of every session, quietly accumulating over time. The timer, sound selection, and session history are free. Field recordings and ambient film are available with Unlimited — a one-time purchase of $2.99.
