When my middle child was born (7 years ago!) my sleep went off the rails. It might have also had to do with being in my late 30s, but I don’t know. So I bought a few noise machines, one for her room and one for us sleep deprived parents. My kid seemed indifferent (she was actually an okay sleeper) but I became dependent on that static sound. I had a film professor once who insisted that if a sound stayed constant for 10 or so seconds, you’ll eventually stop noticing it. It’s obviously still there, but you don’t fixate on it (the way I would with wind, water, birds, cafe, etc.). These physical devices were fine. Kind of cheap and just a few sounds (nature too, which I surprisingly dislike) and a volume knob. But then we’d travel somewhere and I’d forget one or both devices. But I always had my phone. I know the noise machine world on the App Store is nothing new, but for whatever reason it’s still kind of, not great. Maybe I’m just a harsh critic. So that’s why I made Noision. Mix it…
