"sniff_jazzbox creates an audible city. it converts the wlan-waves into sound waves. the wlan conversion uses a streamsearch algorithm which was also used in streamfishing and searchsongs. the extended version for iphone will let the user control instruments and speed of the melodies.

These responsive sound poems provide intuitive tools for readers / listeners / composers to explore the minimalist sound lexicon Piringer has created for them. The lexicon consists of syllables turned into icons or tokens that the reader can move and place (or toggle) in the interfaces to activate brief recorded vocalizations associated with them and combine them with other syllables to create musical & poetic compositions. These are important early works from the creator of wondrous sound poems for the computer and iOS machines.
