"Mobile applications as music distribution are gaining momentum. And many artists, like Passion Pit bassist Jeff Apruzzese, approve. "

JULIA KAGANSKIY, THE CREATORS PROJECT, JULY 19, 2012

“As the old ‘traditional’ model of the music industry and selling records continues to change, bands will need to adapt to keep up. As a musician, this is a great opportunity to collaborate with artists to create a whole different aspect of your music and create a living brand.”

KATHERINE BROOKS, HUFFINGTON POST, JULY 18, 2012

"The touch-screen offers more freedom because there is no physical world to push against."

FILIP VISNJIC, CREATIVE APPLICATIONS, JUNE 19, 2012

The “Passion Pit: Gossamer” by Scott Snibbe Studio is a new interactive music app for iPhone and iPad that combines voronoi diagram with album imagery to allow you to interact with the band’s music video or create new melodies using the samples provided.

HOLLYWOOD 2.0 PODCAST, MAY 27, 2012

Scott Snibbe, founder of Snibbe Interactive and Scott Snibbe Studio, discusses the creation of Biophilia, Bjork's interactive album.

THE CREATORS PROJECT, MAY 22, 2012

“If you listen to the lyrics, you realize the song is about the financial bubble, so we used this fractured bubble-like imagery to suggest that, and to evolve towards the uplifting feeling Passion Pit suggests as the song progresses – moving from simplicity, to complexity, to simplicity again.”

One of my motivations was to create experiences that counter the neuroses that you typically have with computers and with mobile devices.

JASCHA HOFFMAN, NATURE, MAY 10, 2012

"Other fields are limited by money, equipment and the laws of nature. But with computers, the only limits are technical ability, ingenuity and imagination."

REDDIT AMA, 2012

"I'm Scott Snibbe, interactive artist, entrepreneur, and designer of apps for Björk and Passion Pit. AMA."

THITH, 2012

"When I saw an Apple II computer when I was ten years old running Apple Logo, I knew that I wanted to spend my life making interactive graphics and sound."

JULIA KAGANSKIY, THE CREATORS PROJECT, FEBRUARY 21, 2012

“It’s possible to create any form of reality from a combination of visuals, sound and other senses. That’s why we love movies. Interactivity is even further along the spectrum from cinema towards the way our perception works because we can actually change and affect it rather than just sit back and watch it.”

“The mobile app gives us the chance to return to falling in love with music. Because an app fills our visual and tactile senses in a way that goes far beyond a cardboard sleeve, we’re able to give it our undivided attention.”

THE GUARDIAN, OCTOBER 21, 2011

“An app can demand all of your senses and attention at once. That’s something exciting for musicians. A lot of them lament the demise of the album experience due to digital distribution. But one thing about the app-album is it reclaims people’s attention for an entire album.”

SCOTT SNIBBE, CNN THE NEXT LIST BLOG, DECEMBER, 2011

“Apps are not just a return to our interactive past. They also represent something fundamentally new. With the ability to create an experience that is neither as open-ended as an instrument, nor as closed as a music video, apps let us play in a customized, highly designed world created by a musician that never existed before. Like the birth of cinema or opera, musical apps represent a synthesis of formerly separate media—videos, instruments, interactivity, and performance—into a seamless whole.”

SETH SCHIESEL, THE NEW YORK TIMES, OCTOBER 24, 2011

“’Biophilia’ is among the most creative, innovative and important new projects in popular culture. ‘Biophilia’ essentially turns an album into a sort of audiovisual game, delivering a miniature production studio into the world’s willing hands.”

NPR MORNING EDITION, OCTOBER 10, 2011

"Scott Snibbe says he and Bjork communicated regularly, sometimes exchanging dozens of emails a day. They also worked with scientists to make the apps as scientifically accurate as they could. "

M MAGAZINE, OCTOBER, 2011

“Interactivity is something new. Games aren’t something new, they’ve been around for a long time and there is a certain language and goal-orientated logic to them. But games are a subset of interactivity. Interactivity itself is a new medium. It’s a way of incorporating a person’s movements, gestures, choices into any type of experience, not just something where you are driven forward relentlessly, short term goal after short term goal.”

JASON TREUEN, THE VINE, AUGUST, 2011

“Scott Snibbe is Biophilia’s executive producer, but not the usual studio knob-twiddling type. The award-winning interactive artist, who’s produced music apps like Bubble Harp and OscilloScoop and worked with art galleries, the Beijing Olympics and James Cameron in the past, spent 14 months working with Bjork, Apple and various app designers.”

DIE ZEIT, JULY, 2011

“Björns Biophilia Projekt ist jetzt das erste von mir, das eine popkulturelle Masse anspricht. Und Björks Fans haben sehr wohl verstanden, dass Technologie ein Kanal für Emotionen und Inhalte ist.”

OLEG STAVITSKY, F5, SEPTEMBER, 2011

“Музыка всегда развивалась по алгоритму, у нее всегда была четкая математическая структура, даже тысячи лет назад. У гармонии есть формула, понимаете? Но сейчас, с появлением iPad, сама идея интерактивной композиции вышла на новый уровень.”
