With all of the technological possibilities floating around, people are finally starting to utilize it in a creative and imaginative way, take the new Bjork Biophilia album for instance. The Icelandic singer and songwriter has collaborated with various people, from scientists to designers, in order to create a revolutionary [iPad](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/augmented-reality-educational-app) and [iPhone](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/voice-memos-app) app that complements the music album.

Basically a free app, it will feature 10 different tracks, each of which will correspond with a slew of [interactive content](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gizmo-app). With games, musical scores, sleeve notes, visual graphics and more, the Bjork Biophilia app compels the user by allowing him or her to experience the music on a new level. By encouraging a new form of musical engagement, the Bjork Biophilia app has "cracked open the door to possibilities of what a new media experience can be, and simultaneously lessened the benefit of illegal downloading," as PSFK puts it.
