Interactive light · for your phone & Google TV
ETHEREAL
Twenty-nine living worlds of light at your fingertips, and at night, a glowing bedside clock. Touch, and watch the universe answer.
Twenty-nine living worlds of light at your fingertips, and at night, a glowing bedside clock. Touch, and watch the universe answer.
Nightstand mode turns any charging phone (or the old one in a drawer) into a living clock over a world of light. Free with the app.
Ethereal is a native Google TV app. The same app puts twenty-two worlds on your television, living ambience for the whole room, with an optional clock resting at the side.
Each world responds to your fingers in its own way: calm, generative, and endlessly replayable. And every world sounds as alive as it looks: balloons pop, thunder cracks with the bolt, fireworks boom on the burst, jellyfish pulse, each sound landing on the exact moment you see it. Seven are free to enjoy; the other twenty-two unlock together with Ethereal Pro. The TV badge marks worlds that play on Google TV; ☾ marks the eighteen night worlds.
