Immediate, physical, alive.
Bringing feeling back to the digital world.

A Rust DSP engine, compiled to WebAssembly, running off the main thread.
The UI never touches the audio. It just plays it.
Rain on a tin roof, a broken music box. Describe a sound and soundscape synthesizes it, piped in from ElevenLabs.
Generated audio drops into your stash like any other sample, ready for the granular treatment.
speak is a pocket recorder that lives on your phone. Scan the code in soundscape's buffer, tap the disc, and record whatever's around you.
Every take lands straight in your stash, ready to be scattered into grains.
