Longplayer was commissioned by Artangel and is in the care of The Longplayer Trust
The app is available on the iTunes Store.
Until now, Longplayer has only been accessible by visiting a handful of “listening posts” or via an online stream.
This app is the first standalone version of Longplayer, creating the music in real time based on the composition’s thousand-year-long score. It requires no data connection and automatically synchronises itself with every other copy of the app across the globe. With this app you become part of a community of listeners distributed through space and time, across many lifetimes.
Features :
– real time high quality playback of Longplayer, with no need for data connection
– plays in the background: listen to Longplayer while you continue to use other apps, and while your phone is locked.
– real time score display
– graphic and textual information explaining how it works
– detailed information section about Longplayer’s history, development, composition, conceptual background and much more
– up-to-date news from the Longplayer website (data connection required)
