Our modern world constantly bombards us with never-ending distractions and information overload.
So sometimes it just feels good to tap the pause button, clear the brain fog, and enjoy a quiet moment to ourselves.
Moodlapse can help with that. Pick a flower from the collection of 24 time-lapse videos and tap, slide or tilt your screen to create animated kaleidoscopic flower mandalas that promote relaxation and clear the mind. Focus on something interactive, relaxing, and creative. Combine with soothing 3D binaural soundscapes designed to work with specific brainwave frequencies for a more immersive experience.
A real labour of love, these videos are based on 2500 hours’ worth of botanical time-lapse photography by acclaimed photographer and Moodlapse creator Tim Platt. For each flower, thousands of high-resolution stills are animated at different speeds to reveal a secret life of flowers that we don’t normally see.
Create mesmerising kaleidoscopic floral patterns by tapping, sliding, pinching and zooming on your touchscreen. Explore six different layer sequencing options in the Modes menu. For instance ‘Gravity’ mode lets you tilt your device to invert your patterns smoothly across your screen or find your feet in ‘Autoplay’, the mode that lets you interact or sit back and go with the flow. Tap your screen to add or subtract symmetrical repetitions for beautiful and complex effects. This degree of interactivity allows for unlimited variations. Use the snapshot feature to capture and save your patterns for your own personal creative projects, or share them with friends or across social media directly from the app.
Tim says:
“Today we strive to keep up with busy schedules and never-ending streams of distractions and chatter. We search for wellbeing and serenity in this increasingly noisy world. We all know that flowers are good for the soul. Moodlapse helps us to pause and reconnect with the present moment. There is no right way or wrong way to use it and no two sessions will be the same. Tap into the magic of flower power to boost your mood and exercise your mindfulness muscles!”.
Tim’s mission with Moodlapse is to slow us down for a few minutes and help us to feel less frazzled. He thinks of time-lapse as a glimpse into the world of slow-time. While we rush around to keep up with the pressures and distractions of our daily life, our natural world is slowly and continually changing all around us, but at a slower pace, that we barely see or even notice.
A contemporary tech solution to an age-old problem.
Stress and anxiety are nothing new, but lately we have all had more than our fair share. Moodlapse leverages the full power of Apple's Core Animation and AVFoundation frameworks to create a fluid and interactive graphical interface. Exclusive 3D soundscapes use sophisticated brain entrainment techniques including binaural detuning, panning, volume modulation, and embedded sounds of nature. Each track works positively with different brainwave frequencies; choose between calming, relaxing and energising effects.
Moodlapse is a unique pocket relaxation aid to help you to pause and reconnect with the present moment. There is no right way or wrong way to use it and no two sessions will be the same. Tap into the magic of flower power to quickly feel calmer, more focused, and more relaxed.
