How it works
Dodecave is a quiet instrument you play with a single word. You name what you are reaching for, and it becomes something you can hear, see, and hold. It runs on your own device. No account, no noise, nothing asked of you.
Name a word, and the field becomes it
Type a word. Dodecave draws that word's own field from twelve tones: a chord that is unmistakably its own, the image that chord makes, and a voice that sings it back to you. The same word returns to the same field every time, so you can come back to it.
Name nothing, and the room stays open as Stillness: breathing loops of light, quiet until a word is named. This is Co-Create, the whole instrument in a single gesture.
Three ways it meets you
| Hear it | Every word has a voice. It can rest as a quiet drone beneath you, or move as a sung phrase. Low and deep, or bright and near. |
|---|---|
| See it | The same field, drawn as light. A word can be watched at four depths, from a simple figure to a living, moving field. |
| Hold it | A guided journey, open to everyone. Name what you seek, or simply begin, and the session shapes itself around your word and walks you, breath by breath, into gathering and holding a single sound until it settles. Throughout, a twelve-point tree traces the chord of your word, the light moving through the tones that make it. We call that closing movement the Shield. It is a contemplative ritual made of sound, not a claim of protection of any kind. |
Made to be yours, and private
Everything happens on your device, and it works offline. There is no account to create, no tracking by default, and no health claims. The app connects only to dodecave.com, with no third-party trackers, and a Privacy Receipt in your profile shows exactly what, if anything, ever leaves your device. Dodecave works in figures, not diagnoses. Nothing here is broken, so nothing here is cured. There is only something to remember.
Share a field
Tune a word for someone you love and share it, so they can open its field on their own device. A single word held in the last minutes before sleep. A breath of quiet inside a loud afternoon. What it becomes is left to you.
Free, and growing
The core is free and stays free: the word fields, the visual modes, and the guided journey. That free library is deliberately rich, more than two hundred words, and it is enough on its own to experience everything essential about Dodecave; you do not need a membership to have the whole of the core. Membership supports the continued creation of Dodecave and opens an expanding library of new words, deeper journeys, and new ways to listen. Membership includes the Composer: blend two to five words you carry into one ascending field, a journey you move through, keep in your history, and share by a link. Coming to membership is the Generator, which lets you name any word (your own name, a word in your language, a phrase that matters), so it becomes its own field, made the same consistent way as every word here. The personal memberships include the same capabilities (no feature tiers, no add-ons). What differs is who it is for: one person (Dodecave+), a household of up to six (Echo), or a team whose colleagues each get their own access (Teams). Separately, for playing Dodecave live in work you are paid for, the Practitioner License grants the commercial right to play it live in your sessions, classes, or space, in person or livestreamed, all included, not for recordings, online courses, or podcasts; it is a license, not a personal membership, and you can hold both. New capabilities are included automatically while your membership is active, and membership never removes access to the free experience.
What a composed field looks like
In the Composer, a member blends two to five words into one ascending field, a journey that climbs from the first word to its arrival. You move through it, keep it in your history, and share it by a link. These are rendered exactly as the Composer draws them:
How to become a member
- Open Membership.
- Choose what fits: one person (Dodecave+), a household of up to six (Echo), or, for work, a Practitioner license to play it live in paid work, or Teams seats for colleagues.
- Pick annual or monthly (annual costs less), and subscribe. The price is shown again before you enter any payment details, and your card stays with the payment processor, never with us.
- Your membership activates right away, and new member capabilities arrive automatically while it is active. Cancel any time, in one step; the free experience always remains.
