Public experiment
Music meets movement
BeatBiker
An available app—and our current laboratory—for exploring workouts shaped by the music people already love.

Exercise should meet you where you are.
ExerScreen is a passion project exploring how music, content, and adaptable equipment can make movement fit modern life.
What we’re exploring now
Make the things people already love part of the workout.
A favorite song. A familiar app. The exercise bike that is already downstairs. We are interested in the small bridges that make movement feel more natural, personal, and worth returning to.
The workbench
Two ways into the same question.
One begins with the soundtrack. The other begins with the machine. Both ask how exercise can flex around real people and real life.
In the lab
Adapt what you have
FrankenTrainer
A hands-on hardware and software project that asks how existing exercise equipment can become more capable and personal.
Visit the workshopA working philosophy
Less prescription. More invitation.
Meet the motivation.
Music, stories, games, goals—start with the thing that makes someone want to show up.
Adapt the equipment.
Useful exercise gear should not become obsolete just because its software or sensors lag behind.
Learn in public.
These are experiments, shared honestly—with working apps, rough prototypes, and room for better ideas.
Earlier experiments
A useful idea can outlive the app that introduced it.
PainSled and RowedBiker began with indoor rowing: first opening the data to the fitness world people already used, then adapting cycling experiences around the needs of rowers.
That chapter is sunset. Its “work out the way you want” instinct still runs through everything here.
