Curious Life

Curious Life turns a live measurement into music, light and games you can practise with. On your phone runs a scientific instrument: a stream of random events drawn from the tiny timing jitter of the device itself, in the lineage of the Princeton PEAR laboratory. Everything in the app is made from it, live. Whether attention can lean on that stream is a century-old question. Here it becomes something you can hear, play, and keep a record of. NOTES FROM THE FIELD Music written live by the field. Five soundscapes: an open-air sound garden, Memory's slow water and soft light, a choir in a stone room, plucked strings, and Mosaic, where the instrument's own bits ring a marimba. Every note comes from the measurement; nothing is recorded or looped. STAR TRIP AND THE EXERCISES Fly a star across deep space at the altitude of the live reading and catch the golden rings. The Oscillator, Chaos vs Coherence, Synchrony, the Moon, the Orchestra and more: living exercises, all driven by the same measurement. THE PULSE Link a Polar chest strap, a watch, or a Muse headband, and your heart and brain join the field: heart rhythm and coherence, the brain's bands, and music played by your own readings. Heart, brain and the random source record together on one clock, through a locked screen. Export everything as open files whenever you like. THE AMBIENT TAB Let it play while you live. The Pulse, Notes from the field and Ambient's sixteen night voices, with a dawn alarm that wakes you with your own field. The music keeps playing with the screen locked, and stays honest: it rides the real measurement, or it stays silent. FREQUENCY TUNING AND THE SUN MEDITATION A frequency generator with carriers and pulses for grounding, focus and rest, now including the Schumann resonance, the Earth's own 7.83 Hz hum, raised five octaves so you can hear it. And the sun meditation: five minutes at noon, turning to the sun. YOUR RECORD Every session builds your personal record, placed against the whole field of practitioners. No account is needed; sign in with your email to carry your record across devices. NOTHING WATCHES YOU No microphone, no motion sensors. The camera and photo library are asked for only when you open a picture in Synaesthesia; Bluetooth and Health only when you choose to connect a device. Heart, brain and picture data never leave your phone. It is an instrument and an open experiment: whatever the data shows, it shows. Curious Life is an experiment and a practice, not a medical device. It makes no health claims, and a sound cannot carry the Earth's field or lock you to it.
