For the music lover – you never know where inspiration will come from

I took a Design Procedures class this fall at SVA (which has amazing continuing education courses by the way) and did this project. The assignment was to redo a New York Times Magazine layout. I picked an article about the Ocarina – which is an app for the iPhone that you can literally blow into your phone and “play” your iPhone like a recorder almost. Technology is amazing. The article had some good photos, but I thought it needed a cool illustration – hence all the music coming out of the iPhone.

That led to this card below and the pattern above. I’d like to pitch a couple companies to use this design on iPhone and iPad skins. Can you see this pattern on any other products?
