This is my first app that I have made. I posted this a little while ago, but I have just made a free version of this app based on some peoples suggestions in a previous version of this thread: WifiSynth It is an audio synthesizer that generates music based off of the wifi networks in your proximity. Each network ID gets a unique musical sequence and tonality based off of the network name. The volume corresponds to the network strength. As you walk around you can explore the soundscape that is generated by these sounds. I am working on making it so that you can record the generated sounds now.
WifiSynth - This is my first app that I have made. It is an audio synthesizer that generates music based off of the wifi networks in your proximity. Each network ID gets a unique musical sequence and tonality based off of the network name. The volume corresponds to the network strength. As you walk around you can explore the soundscape that is generated by these sounds. I have found it gets pretty chaotic when used on the bus or in a car and it works best walking around. Visually it is nothing stunning, just a readout of the networks around you and their signal strength. I have had a lot of fun walking around my neighborhood and checking out the different sounds.
I just put together a free version of the app which is available here: Free version
So I took your feedback and finally got around to making a free ad supported version of the app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wifi.synthfree
Thanks for the suggestion!
