In lieu of straight up music on my headphones, this week I’ve been spacing out with the Inception iPhone App. It’s trippy re-mixes of the sounds around me, along with slow burning musical themes from the movie make merely riding the subway into an alternate reality experience.
This app is a dream machine that transforms the world around you into a dreamworld. It uses augmented sound to induce dreams through the headset of your iPhone and iPod Touch. It will change your perception of reality.
The app uses the audio sampling/processing/twisting framework of RJDJ, adding in custom Inception themes and interface. The full RJDJ app lets users load up pre-made and custom soundcapes, with projects coming in from people like Jimmy Edgar, Booka Shade, and Air.
