Description
This new holiday version of Björk's Solstice app from Biophilia is based on a poem celebrating the Christmas season by poet / author Sjon, comparing the solar system to a Christmas tree.
At the center of the app is a sun from which the user pulls rays of light to form a circular harp of strings plucked by colorful orbiting planets; tilt the device and the orbital planes turn into the branches of a three-dimensional Christmas tree, the stars becoming snowflakes. In Solstice, Björk plays the “Solstice” song with a specially commissioned pendulum-harp which embodies the idea of gravity that was central to the song’s creation.
Solstice was developed with Max Weisel, creator of the bestselling Soundrop App, and Björk's longtime design collaborators M/M (Paris).

Customer Reviews
Can't send e-card to anyone
You have to have this app in order to view the song that is sent in the e-card. Not much of a greeting card.
Sad
Not only do the people you send cards to have to have an ipad to view the card, but they also have to buy the app! Very disappointing!
Amazing!
Bjork never disappoints and this app is really cool. I love that it lets you send customized holiday cards.
