phone version @02:46 AM

record_tag_2.jpg

after a week or so I've got a basic port of my thesis to the phone.

Flow is as follows:

See some sort of code in the environment, get phone number from a sticker or flier or something... --> call the phone number --> get instructions --> enter the code --> hit webserver to check date, time and retrieve appropriate music file --> stream that music file --> loop if necessary --> allow user to interrupt with another code they see as they are walking around listening --> awesomely generic fade out sound --> awesomely spectacular fade-in sound --> hit php server, etc., get new file from the new code they just entered --> play that file --> loop this process.

the image is an example of a possible tag, although part of me wants to integrate all that into the environment. giving people the phone number is the tricky part. getting people to make a damn phone call these days is even trickier.

bastards.
