Another touch of elegance from Eno/Chilvers
While many apps are interesting and effective, for me, not too many embody the concept of 'elegance'. This one does.

Description
Trope, designed by ambient pioneer Brian Eno and musician / software designer Peter Chilvers, expands further on the ideas introduced by Bloom, their acclaimed iPhone application. Darker in tone, Trope immerses users in endlessly evolving soundscapes created by tracing abstract shapes onto the screen, varying the tone with each movement.
Recommended for headphones and external speakers.
"Trope is a different emotional experience from Bloom - more introspective, more atmospheric. It shows that generative music, as one of the newest forms of sonema, can draw on a broad palette of moods." - Brian Eno

Beautiful sound and vision
While I'm fond of Bloom, and it's more "playable", I spend much more time with Trope as I enjoy the synth tones' greater prominence in the mix. Trope has become my favourite sleep music with its soothing tones and the slow evolution of notes when the random modes are switched on.
splendid
Visually intriguing, beautiful - and aurally engaging, spacious Longer tones than Bloom, and results look more - to me - like a moving painting Better than TV
Not happy
Why is this listed as a iPad app it clearly is for iPhone feel like I was just ripped off to be honest. Low res graphics and well just not cool to sell this as a ipad app
I don't get it.
I'm a big fan of Bloom. I enjoy Air, though it's a bit simple. I just don't get Trope. I confess I don't find the music as interesting. I don't feel as in control of the sounds.
Better than Bloom
Love it. Thanks!
Not as great as Bloom
Not as interactive as Bloom. Not able to play a melody or single notes :( thought it would be better..It's just missing something. Great ambiant sounds if you just want to listen to it.
Very cool
Definatly need to use headphones or speakers. Another great interactive mood music app.
