Video over Audio Transmitter/Receiver
PixiVisor is a tool for experimenting with the transmission of video over audio.
It consists of two parts: Transmitter and Receiver.
* Transmitter converts the low-resolution video (stream from camera, static image or GIF animation) to sound in real time, pixel by pixel (progressive scan). So any image or animation can be transferred to the other devices through the sound.
* Receiver converts the sound (from microphone or Line-in input) back to video. You can set the color palette for this video, and record it to animated GIF file.
Examples of use:
* wireless Lo-Fi video transmission over audio;
* video signal transmission through audio cable; you can then modify that signal by some mixers or audio FX processors;
* VJing;
* sound visualization;
* searching for hidden messages in the ambient noise; EVP (Electronic Voice Phenomenon), ITC (Instrumental Transcommunication);
* save any sound to animated GIF;
* something else...
Control keys:
SPACE - play/stop (transmitter);
1,2,3,4,5,6 - slot select (transmitter);
F - hide/show control panel;
[ - previous palette (receiver);
] - next palette (receiver);
I - invert (receiver);.
N - normalize (receiver);
1,2 - contrast -/+ (receiver);.
3,4 - gamma -/+ (receiver);
5,6 - finetune -/+ (receiver);
7,8 - repeat X -/+ (receiver);
9,0 - repeat Y -/+ (receiver);
LEFT,RIGHT,UP,DOWN - move the image (receiver).

Very clever idea. Fun to play with the noise. I wish I could hook up an external monitor for a two screen solution. That is, have the controls on pad and the video only on the second monitor
A Favorite

A favorite app from a favorite dev. Would love it if there was a more full featured video synth that looked like this and would output scaled up video file. Perhaps have it work as a music visualizer, maybe with blendable inputs to modulate images.
Love this App

Have this on my iPhone and Mac, use it in my live shows. It’s totally rad, and the camera function is fantastic. Hope to see more updates, such a great idea!
feature request: import/export audio
I.like.music.also
great app! lots of fun to play with when you have two devices. i wish it were possible to export the transmission audio as a .wav file, and import an audio file to the receiver. any chance of these features being added?audiobus support would be amazing, too!
