Motes: Fidget With Light

Motes is an iPhone app by Orlien Studio. Each day there is one field of glowing light, made of thousands of tiny motes. It is the same for everyone on that date, and a new one arrives at local midnight. You can touch it: tap, drag, or rest a finger on it. When you let go, the field heals back to its calm pattern. The sound is generated live on your iPhone, and there are gentle haptics. Each day’s field also hides one secret.
