Inspired by a poetry from the Tang Dynasty, Musipple Music Player combines Chinese culture and modern technology to bring this music device to you. Wei Yingwu once wrote a beautiful poem that mentions trees near the water cause ripples as they touch the water while birds on the trees are singing. Water ripples are considered as beautiful, natural phenomenon in the East. They represent how one little action can make an impact to our surroundings. Another inspiration would be a vinyl record player, Musipple fuses Eastern and Western cultures to create an innovative and interactive music player.
