Mono no Aware is an electronic music record and VR Music App.
A sonic and visual experience that gives to the user the possibility of losing himself in an infinite void filled only with crystallized sonic artifacts exploring the space throughout the sounds of the record, finding a way out with them or get lost in it.
Described by the artist as : “a deep dive into void and confusion, an attempt to understand the complexity of love and hate, a way to crystallize moments in time and accept that what thrives must decay”
The app concept, art direction, and development are by Davide Cairo (edisonnoside) and by the Art Director Stefano Ottaviano.
Starting from the concept and the cover art, made by Cecilia Cairo, they created an environment that mirrors the sensations behind the music, combining them into an explorable virtual space that, with the help of 3D sound, activate a multi-sensory experience where music is the driving force for the exploration of the surreal world, leading the viewer to 4 different gates that will allow to escape the confusion of the initial world and get into a safe, guided experience of each single song, that in this first version are Moonskin and Redline.
*This is beta version of Mono No Aware, its supported on iPhone 5, iPod Touch 5, iPhone SE, iPhone 6, iPhone 6s, iPhone 7 *
