by Maja Bosnić

Ever-changing piece for two groups of musicians with phone apps
(2018-)

In \com.app.data  [Score Follower video] free apps for smartphones are used as found objects and incorporated into the performance, so that they dictate musical material, react to live sounds, make and play sounds, conduct musicians, record them live and playback with effects (details of previous performances are at the bottom of the page).

All apps used in \com.app.data are created by various different developers and are all available for free download on Google Play store and Apple store (see links below).
