Carly Sacco – Looking Outwards-12

Scott Snibbe is a designer in interactive art, augmented reality, gesture – based interfaces, and digital video. His work has been acquired by multiple known companies like Facebook and New York MoMA. Snibbe started his career as an early developer for After Effects which was also acquired by Adobe. Two of his projects that I believe relate to my final project are two of his app designs; these are: Eyegroove and Bjork: Biophilia.

Eyegroove is an app that allows fans to create music videos and share them as a social network (very similar to tik tok). You could choose songs and create videos to the songs and then share them. Bjork, on the other hand, is considered the first “app album”. This app explores the relationships between music and natural configurations. Both of these apps let people interact via music as well as change the music or what the app is doing. I like that both of these projects change how people can respond to music, but I think they would be interesting if the user could also make their own music.
