Stanford Mobile Phone Orchestra (MoPhO)
The Stanford Mobile Phone Orchestra (MoPhO) is a
repertoire-based ensemble using mobile phones (e.g., iPhones) as the primary musical instrument - the first of its kind. Far beyond ring-tones,mini phone, MoPhO’s interactive musical works take advantage of the unique technological capabilities of today’s hardware and software, transforming multi-touch screens, built-in accelerometers,cell phone car accessories, built-in microphones,web camera, GPS, data networks, and computation into powerful and yet mobile chamber meta-instruments.
MoPhO was instantiated in 2007 at CCRMA, Stanford University,unlocked wifi phone, by faculty member and director Ge Wang,av cable, Deutsche Telekom senior research scientist (now faculty at University of Michigan, co-director 2007-2009) Georg Essl, and visiting CCRMA researcher Henri Penttinen,apple charger, with CCRMA Artistic Coordinator Chryssie Nanou, 2007-2008 MA/MST students, and generous initial support from Nokia. MoPhO performed
its first public concert in January 2008.
MoPhO is made possible by generous support from the Stanford University School of Humanities and the National Science Foundation, and would also like to thank
our friends and colleagues at CCRMA, Smule,dual sim tv mobile phones, Altec Lansing,dvi to hdmi cables, and Apple. Please contact Ge for more information. Also,vintage wedding dresses, check out our sibling MiPhO at University of Michigan!
