Concept

Sound reactive, app-enabled, hyper-chromatic art that will transport you to another dimension

Story

After two years of precision hyper-engineering, we’re ready to bring you the most star-striking fusion of art and technology in the multiverse:

 

 

 

 

Harmonic, symphonic, electronic. Visualize and get lost in your music like never before with over 30 unique sound reactive patterns, specially designed to work with any kind of music. These patterns use a microphone to analyze musical lows, mids, and highs to create infinite ultra-responsive audio-visual variety. Don’t just take our word for it, crank up the volume and check out the videos!

 
 

Choose from predefined color palettes or up to 3 custom colors

 

Adjust speed, intensity, and symmetry

 

Up close, the space inside the cube appears to expand into infinity. Get lost in hyperspace.

 

 

We’ve already delivered hundreds of HyperCubes in our first production run, and our customers are over the moon (or, more accurately, lost somewhere in hyperspace). Check out what some of our first backers have to say about the HyperCube!

 

  • Two models: HyperCube10 (10x10x10″) & HyperCube15 (15x15x15″)
  • 95 unique custom-coded patterns, and 3 modes
  • Randomly generated color palettes shift every 10s (adjustable)
  • LEDs: bright and color-saturated addressable LEDs, rated to last for 50,000+ hours
  • Windows: scratch-proof, shatter-proof, lightweight, optical-grade acrylic
  • Frame: sleek, high-durability PVC
  • Low power draw: average 6W / 12W for HC10 / HC15
  • 5V power supply included, with US outlet plug
  • 2.4 GHz WiFi connectivity for mobile app

 

 

Standard Operation

The HyperCube will blast out photons as soon as it’s plugged in. By default it will play patterns from the “Kaleidoscopic” mode, changing pattern every 60 seconds and generating new colors every 10 seconds. Manually change pattern with a single press of the button on the control box, and change mode with a double press, or fully customize the experience with our app.

 

 

Things are going to go much quicker this time around. Components for the next 1000 HyperCubes are already in production!

 

 

We are two scientists with a passion for light, geometry, and technology!

TimM O’Connor (left) received his PhD in NanoEngineering from UCSD, holds a master’s in Physics, and a BS focused on Business/Entrepreneurship. Dylan Lovinger (right) received his PhD in Physics from UCSD, for his work in ultrafast laser spectroscopy. We are now both full time hyper-engineers! The HyperCube project is a merger of everything we love: the physics of light, technology, and radical art. We’re doing this because we want to illuminate the world. To share the mesmerizing beauty that emerges from the marriage of art and technology.

We have also recently brought on a strategic advisor: Vince Kadlubek. Vince is the co-founder and board director of Meow Wolf, a radical events and entertainment group now expanding to 4 locations across the US and valued at over $500M. Vince will be helping us expand our brand and market to intergalactic reaches! In addition, we are working closely with other advisors who have years of experience in manufacturing, logistics, and crowdfunding.

 

This project is significantly de-risked. We already have a viable product that we’ve delivered to hundreds of customers. All we need now is to finish production of the parts for batch 2, and assemble/ship them to you.

However no project is without risk. We are now ramping up our production and moving to a new assembly factory that can support our growth, which always comes with challenges. We have worked with this company for some of our components, and we have full trust in their ability to expand production with us. We have already received excellent HyperCube samples from them. With the assistance of our professional advisors and their expansive network, and our own capacity for problem solving (especially after all we’ve learned over the last two years), we can guarantee that you will receive the product you backed! And trust us, it looks even better in person!
