Malleable Mobile Music

A system for collaborative musical creation on mobile wireless networks. The work extends on simple peer-to-peer file sharing systems towards ad-hoc mobility, streaming, and collaborative creation. It extends music listening from a passive act to a proactive, participative activity. The system consists of a network based interactive music engine and a mobile rendering player. It serves as a platform for experiments on studying the sense of agency in collaborative creative process, and requirements for fostering musical satisfaction in remote collaboration.
