Instead of being a game, Electroplankton uses the avant-garde art of
Japanese multimedia artist Toshio Iwai to turn your Nintendo DS into a
hub for otherworldly plankton, each of which can be used to produce a
wide variety of visual and audio collages. Encounter 10 unique species
that respond to a touch of the stylus, a clap of your hands or even the
sound of your voice. Stimulate these strange aquatic creatures,
encouraging them to produce soothing sounds or melodies and techno and
industrial beats alike.
Produce music, enjoy light shows and even sample your own sounds and
vocals; playing with them, distorting them and layering them into the
experience. Choose Performance mode to make use of the unique
instruments to produce your own music, or kick back with Audience mode
and let a blend of unusual sound textures wash over you. While other
games encourage you to rack your brains, Electroplankton is a purely
sensory experience. Don't think - feel!
