This is the sound of Omnidot – which also happens to be the sound one hears while playing Super Mario World as Mario come in contact with a mushroom. When Mario touches a mushroom, he becomes bigger and stronger. This is the kind of utopia Omnidot wants to achieve – a world that is more secure, more comfortable, and ultimately better than the world we presently inhabit.
Just as Mario and the Mushroom Kingdom are made up of pixels, Omnidot is a world very similar to video games in the sense that it, too, is made up of pixels (or what we refer to as “dots”). You can practically hear the bits and bytes (or the dots) being composed within this particular sound – an audio clip truly representative of the Omnidot utopia.
