Hi everyone! Imajourn turns sound into shape. You hum a note or touch the water, and you see the sound as a moving pattern.

Some of you met the first version here earlier this year. Version 2.0 is a complete rebuild for iPhone and iPad:

  • Hum: hold a note and the water settles into its shape.

  • Touch: every ripple plays a note, always in key.

  • Plate: sand gathers on the still lines of a ringing plate, as in Chladni's experiments from 1787.

  • Room (Pro): watch sound travel, bounce and build standing waves in 3D, even inside a 3D model you import.

  • Your own shapes: draw one, or with Pro, type a name or use a photo.

  • Drift: it plays by itself and fades out, for falling asleep.

  • Clips with sound, ready to share.

It's free to start. Pro is a one-time purchase, with no subscription, and if you bought Pro before, it's still yours. No ads, no account, no tracking: sound is analysed on your device and never recorded.

I'd love to see what you make with it, and to hear what you'd like next.
