Paint with your voice

Don't expect great art, but VoicePainter [app store link] for the iPhone allows you to speak, sing, growl, or put any other sounds into your iPhone while the software creates colorful abstract art.

The app has no instructions, you just touch any of three drawing modes and start making noise. The louder the sound, the bolder the stroke. I haven't quite correlated the colors to anything. I thought they might be related to frequency, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

If you get tired of your creation, just shake the iPhone and the screen goes blank and you can start again. I put some classical music on and didn't get as interesting patterns as when I was speaking or singing. Hmmm.

You can also save any of your compositions to the camera roll, and send them to friends and family to marvel over.

VoicePainter is US $0.99. It's not a stunner, but it is something else that is unique for the iPhone. Sing away!

Same sample screens are in the gallery below.
