INTERACTIVE AND CONTEXT-AWARE MOBILE MUSIC EXPERIENCES
Jarno Seppänen, Jyri Huopaniemi · 2008
In this paper, we present compelling scenarios for future mobile music. Firstly, we provide a high-level architecture of mobile devices as contextual interactive computers. Secondly, we present research questions that arise from the combination of three domains of data: context data, collaborative listening data, and music content data. From these three domains, we propose to model the purpose of music listening and to offer purposeful music recommendations, which are both personalized and situationalized to the person and context of interest. Thirdly, we describe a realization of a mobile orchestra using existing mobile phone technology and discuss the role of personalization and preferences in future mobile music services. The paper will be concluded by future research problems and the landscape for compelling new services.
