Project Information

🎯 Problem

In today’s digital age, people are constantly bombarded with overstimulation and excessive screen time, leading to mental fatigue, stress, and difficulty disconnecting. Whether it's through work, entertainment, or social media, screen dependency has made it harder for individuals to find moments of calm. As a result, many struggle to relax, meditate, and recharge, contributing to a growing need for experiences that help reduce stress and promote mindfulness without adding to the digital overload.

🛠️ Challenge

The challenge of this project is to create an immersive, engaging experience that addresses the problem of overstimulation by eliminating visual distractions entirely. Our goal is to design an audio-driven journey where sound, rather than screens, guides users into a state of calm and relaxation. Crafting dynamic soundscapes that keep users engaged while facilitating meditation and relaxation requires careful attention to pacing, progression, and the evolving nature of the audio world. It’s about striking the perfect balance between creating an exciting exploration and providing a space for mindfulness.

Fact

Are you passionate about audio design, interactive storytelling, and creating immersive experiences? We’re looking for talented individuals to help us build an app where sound leads users through a vast and evolving fantasy world. In this app, there are no individual sessions—just an uninterrupted journey guided by footsteps, evolving soundscapes, and a sense of discovery.

What We're Building:

Imagine a continuous exploration through various biomes—forests, deserts, caves, and oceans—each with its unique sound environment. Footsteps adapt to different terrains, and soundscapes evolve as users travel deeper into the world, progressing with real-time changes like day-night cycles and weather transitions. No visuals, just rich, dynamic audio that responds to the user's pace and interactions, making every step feel like a new adventure.

Who We Need:

Audio Designer: Create immersive, biome-specific soundscapes that evolve dynamically based on user movement and the environment.
UX Designer: Design an intuitive, minimalist interface that enhances the audio-driven journey while providing users with a calm, distraction-free experience.
App Developer: Build the app’s infrastructure with a focus on seamless audio integration, progress tracking, and a minimalist user interface.
