Music Friend
A virtual pet and mix-tape sharing system that rewards you for making custom recorded mixes by growing your digital audiophile hatchling. Music friend lets you record audio by acting as a bluetooth sink (and source), audio input jacks, and an on-board microphone. Add your recordings to playslists to create mixes to share with your friends. Every recording you make, tag you edit, and playlist you share adds to your pet as it grows.
#AudioSnap Box — two‑way song voicemail A small tabletop device (one at your place, one at your parents’ place) that acts like a Snapchat-for-audio:
- You record or import a song/audio clip (via Bluetooth audio or line‑in).
- You optionally record a short intro voice message (“Hi mom…”) using an onboard mic.
- The device packages the intro + main audio into a single “message” and sends it over the internet to the paired device.
- The receiver shows “New message” on a tiny screen; a button plays it back (intro first, then the song).
- Messages are stored on microSD and can auto‑expire (optional), keeping the “surprise capsule” vibe.
This avoids the “record system audio from a phone app” problem: the device records what you feed it (analog line‑in or Bluetooth receiver), then sends the resulting file.

Ambient Sound Systems
Sculptures that generate ever-changing musical tapestries. Ambient engines fueled by sensory data turn the environment into musoc.
Binary Clock
A clock designed to teach people binary. Lights turn on and off based on the current time. Each row of the system corresponds to a digit of the time. HHMMSS and each column corresponds to a numeric place. e.g. 13:45:30
