i could not get the rest of my comment to post,for some reason... i know inherently this would be a beginning. here was the rest of my post:

continued from below....

i see the implications of the broader application. if this could be devised in multiple countries with various devices,it is indeed a pioneering move towards integrating space,time,music,experience. bravo! will share with my friends:-)

@dkmoopy thanks for sharing with your friends...the more people that get involved with viewing and voting for their favourite idea from the 5 videos the better!

We should all feel compelled in giving SATSYMPH the possibility to take us all a step further in experiencing, understanding and thinking about art, technology and life. Over the next few months and years most of us will all acquire android adapted mobile devices at affordable prices and we shall use them for the most disparate of applications. How fun to get to grips with these new resources via the musical explorations of an urban landscape.

SATSYMPH means 'a poem', or a piece of music' does not exist as such, but only in an interaction with the CONTEXT of the hearer. If that ain't revolutionary then what is??? See discussion-thread on SATSYMPH Facebook site

[ungeworden]

Query from someone about why we are making SATSYMPH available as an Apple App: the point is that SATSYMPH uses 'context-aware media' and that, all things considered, the best way to deliver such content to the broadest spectrum of people is probably thru' an Apple App. But SATSYMPH exists entirely independently of 'the platform provider' so in future could be delivered (with a bit of adaption) on any platform with advanced GPS capability - and these device are becoming more and more frequent.

@mediachap Alternatively, to get to the voting page for SATSYMPH click on the text under the video above that says

"Is this the most pioneering music in the UK? Should this idea win £50,000? Ha..."

Follow the links to the voting page from there - sorry it's so convoluted!

@mediachap Hi there. SATSYMPH won't appear on the app store unless we win the PRSF New Music Award competition and received the prize money to create the work. The promotional video is to explain the project and get people to vote for SATSYMPH. If we win, SATSYMPH would become available on the app store from Autumn 2011. The competition voting closes on the 5th September and the winner will be announced on the 16th September 2010. So, please vote for us on-line or by texting '5' to 70099, now!

Hi, just wondered if the app is available. I can't seem to find it on the appstore.

500 characters NOT enough for me to expound in suitable poetic style on what SATSYMPH is and why it's so groundbreaking so I've started discussion threads on the SATSYMPH Facebook page (go to FB and type 'SATSYMPH') so I can get all poetic! Seriously, I want to create poetry for the 21st century, not the 19th, and SATSYMPH is my vehicle. Please comment.
