The Idea.
Imagine the universe's infinite emptiness, a place where absolute silence rules. We want to fill this space symbolical and to give the innumerably stars a special sound. In interaction between the user with the stars and the stars among themselves, there will be different sounds create. They will picture a musically portrait of the universe.
The Concept.
The user flies with a starship through the space. He is able to interact with the Star by activate them via shooting. An activated star makes noise and a shockwave arises. It evolves through the space and activates other stars and items on its way which also make sounds and send new shockwaves. An chain reaction starts and an uniquely world of noises is created.
Constellations and Orbs.
Some stars are interlinked to signs. From time to time new signs will uprise and old ones will disappear. If one star in a sign is activated by a shockwave, the other stars in the sign will also activate. Now and again different orbs like comets or planets will appear. If a shockwave hits such an orb, a new sound, which is very different, will be created.
The editorially Arrangement.
The tone color and the volume of the created sound are swayed by the size of stars. A large star creates a deeply and loudly tone. Which sound you will hear is random.
Life and Death.
The shockwave which is send out by a star has a finitely lifetime. With growing size it becomes weaker. How large an shockwave can be is addicted to the size of a star.
The Realization.
The interface for our project is build with Flash. All sounds will be integrated into the Flash-file, so the "instrument" is very portable and easy to handle. The application could be distributed via web because no special hard- or software is needed.
The Download.
There are three versions of "Captain Rock'it and the Sound of Stars" available: Online-Version, Windows-Version, Mac-Version
