Meaningful sound, made visible
Since 2012, Soundwave Art™ has helped people turn voices, heartbeats, vows, laughter, and other meaningful recordings into personalized artwork and jewelry.
What began with a simple idea has grown into an original collection of keepsakes you can see, touch, wear, and even play.
We helped turn sound into an art form
More than a decade ago, we asked a simple question: What would a meaningful recording look like if it became art? That idea led to Soundwave Art™, an interactive design experience that allowed people to upload a recording, see its unique pattern, personalize it, and turn it into something lasting.
Today, the phrase “soundwave art” is used around the world. Soundwave Art™ remains the original company behind the name, the idea, and many of the innovations that helped make this type of personalized art possible.
Founded in 2012
More than a decade of creating personalized artwork, jewelry, and meaningful keepsakes from real recordings.
Small and Independent
Soundwave Art™ is independently owned and operated in the United States, with personal attention given to every order.
Created for the World
Our work has reached customers in more than 50 countries and has been shared by people around the world.
See your recording before it becomes art
Soundwave Art™ was created to give you more than a small set of preset designs. Our design software lets you upload your recording and see the actual Soundwave pattern created from your audio.
From there, you can personalize the colors, size, placement, text, and typography before ordering. You see the design as you create it, so you know what your finished artwork will look like.
More than something beautiful to look at
Soundwave Art™ combines meaningful design with technology that allows selected artwork and jewelry to connect back to the recording behind the Soundwave.
Playable Artwork
Selected Soundwave artwork can be made interactive through the Soundwave Art™ app. Scan the artwork with a compatible phone to hear the recording or view the video connected to it.
Learn About Playable Artwork →Playable Necklaces
Our ironwood necklaces include an NFC chip hidden inside the pendant. Tap the back with a compatible smartphone and open the link that appears to hear your recording.
Explore Playable Necklaces →Technology That Stays Discreet
Playback technology is built into the design rather than printed as a visible QR code. Your artwork and jewelry remain clean, personal, and focused on the meaning behind them.
A recording you can carry with you
Our playable necklaces bring the recording directly into the keepsake. A small NFC chip is concealed beneath the black pearl inlay on the back of each pendant.
Unlock a compatible phone, hold it near the back of the pendant, and tap the link that appears. No separate charm, batteries, charging, or dedicated app is required.
Small business care behind every order
Soundwave Art™ is not a large marketplace or automated personalization company. It is an independently owned business where each project represents a real voice, memory, or moment entrusted to us by a customer.
Co-founder Mike LaTour has run Soundwave Art™ since its beginning in 2012 and continues to personally oversee the work, customer experience, and development of new products.
Your Real Recording
Each Soundwave begins with the audio you provide, whether it is a voicemail, wedding vow, heartbeat, laugh, pet sound, song, or personal message.
Crafted with Care
Walnut, maple, basswood, and necklaces are handcrafted by Mike. Prints and rings are made by trusted production partners.
Personal Support
Questions are answered directly by Mike, who creates the products and understands both how they work and why these recordings matter.
Created from sound. Made for you.
