Smule, the people that invented the Sonic lighter application for the iPhone, step it up a notch with Ocarina, the first networked music instrument for the iPhone.
For only $0.99 cents, you will be able to enjoy two major features with the Ocarina app:
1) Play music on your phone by clicking on a set of circles on the touch screen or “blowing” into it. The Ocarina app is a modern version of an ancient instrument, believed to be 12, 000 years old. It is sensitive to your breath, touch and movements.
2) Listen to Ocarina songs being played by iPhone holders around the globe, in real time, through a world map interface bleeping with green dots that represent active Ocarinas. Though there are levels of expertise, you can easily skip the bad players by hitting next.
The developers of the Ocarina app are all academics at the Center for Computer Research in Music and Acoustics (CCRMA).
Great job in making an app not only useful, but viral. More on this app on TC.
