Bass Shapes is a stand-alone computer application that is visually stimulated by audio input. Three dimensional primitives are generated and react to the beat of the music using 3d physics. The app was originally intended to be available on the Mac App Store. The app was rejected by Apple who gave the reason “it is not very useful.” Apple suggested adding more features to the app including “multiple scenes/themes, strobe lights, blurring, etc.” The suggestions opposed the original aesthetic, concept and goals, so I decided to release the app for free download for OSX here: http://yellquietly.com/bass-shapes/
