Art comes in many different forms, but with VisualSonic, consumers can combine their artistic tastes into a single, harmonious unit. That's because the clever device looks like a [piece of wall art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vavia) but surreptitiously doubles as a [Bluetooth speaker](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tivoli-audio-boutique), letting people engage both their love for visual art and music at the same time.

Few would be able to recognize that VisualSonic is anything more than a piece of art on the wall. The gadget is billed as the world's thinnest musical device, with a speaker system just 25 millimeters thick, making the musical aspect virtually invisible. Further, it connects to audio systems via a Bluetooth TWS codec, so hosts can control the invisible speakers through their smartphones without guests being any the wiser.

VisualSonic is a great device for people with [diverse artistic tastes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sound-of-a-masterpiece).
