The Powder Toy

sound powder?!

    I'm hereby suggesting a kind of powder which will make a sound uppon receiving electricity.
    The concept could be the following:
    -Its an electrical component and will work quite similar to WIFI or FILT. By Using heat or cold you define the tone (Pitch) the powder makes.
    -Like Wifi the tones are coded as intervals of 100 degree, starting with C1 and rising, in halftone steps, up to.. lets say C5
    -by receiving a SPRK through metal or semiconductors it emits the respective tone
    -The standard sound shall be a simple sine wave. The Waveform could maybe be altered by adding diffent SOLIDS adjacent to the tone powder (Im not quite sure about this one..)

    I really would like to see some kind of powder like this in future releases. It would give you a huge range of new creative things to do with power toy.
    What I still lack is an idea of how to adjust the amplitude of the tone.. but maybe that one's not so imporntant.

    Suggestions is closed? I didn't spot that in the first place O_o
    A 'Buzzer' element would be of great use, but then again, could be a good use for spam and trollz. You could make songs and stuff ^^
