SEPBLOOM LABS brings images, sound and touch into one quiet creative space. Import an image or create a short text composition. Explore a continuous particle field with orbit, zoom, attraction and depth. Choose organic motion presets or fluid textures from the MOTION panel. Import your own music to drive breathing, curls and flowing movement. Song analysis guides gradual transitions into floating particles during energetic passages, then back toward the image as the music settles. PLAY turns the canvas into an instrument. Choose a sound, root and scale, then play the multitouch keyboard. Shape expression with vertical finger movement, explore chords, or adjust envelope, filter, LFO and space. Felt, Clear and Dream offer different starting points. Record particle videos with imported music or your live performance, then preview, share or save them to Photos. Light and dark themes keep the focus on your work. Works locally on iPhone and iPad. No account is required. Music files are supplied by you; use content you have permission to share. AI music generation is not included in this release.
