When you really love music, browsing through your collection
is a serious activity. And having more control over how and when you experience
each song is unbelievably satisfying. That’s why the A-MUSI-T (pronounced
Amusity) table by designers Idan Arbel, Dana Yichye-Shwachman and Yossi Lugassi
will no doubt be a favorite among music lovers when or if it’s actually
produced.
The table lets you use a graphic interface to choose your music by
simply setting a small object on top of the graphic representing whatever song
you want to hear. Place another object on the song to see the music video, and
use a different object to zoom in on the whole graphic interface. The “I”
object gives you further information about the song, like lyrics, album art or
band information.
Each song selection you make will bring up other songs that
the system thinks you might like. Choosing a related song likewise brings up a new
constellation of songs, with the more popular tracks being clustered in the
middle and the less popular ones resting a little more toward the edges of the
table. The amazing little removable “objects” can be used together or
separately: for example, the video object can display a music video for one
song while the speaker plays the audio for a different song, or you can place
them on the same song to get the full effect. Simply twisting the speaker
object adjusts the volume. We can definitely see products like the Amusity
table becoming reality in the near future; if not for home use (at least at
first) then definitely for places like cafes or clubs, where private booths or
headphones would provide private, customizable music shows.
