	abstract = {<p>The Smule Ocarina is a wind instrument designed for the\&nbsp;iPhone, fully leveraging its wide array of technologies:\&nbsp;microphone input (for breath input), multitouch (for\&nbsp;fingering), accelerometer, real-time sound synthesis, high-performance graphics, GPS/location, and persistent data\&nbsp;connection. \&nbsp;In this mobile musical artifact, the\&nbsp;interactions of the ancient flute-like instrument are both\&nbsp;preserved and transformed via breath-control and\&nbsp;multitouch finger-holes, while the onboard global\&nbsp;positioning and persistent data connection provide the\&nbsp;opportunity to create a new social experience, allowing\&nbsp;the users of Ocarina to listen to one another. \&nbsp;In this way,\&nbsp;Ocarina is also a type of social instrument that enables a\&nbsp;different, perhaps even magical, sense of global\&nbsp;connectivity.</p>},
