Cellphone control remote (sms texting) to control a projected jukebox interface
This is a link I found related to the future of cellphones, music downloads, and a jukebox that contains every song that has ever existed: The Future of Music: Cell Phone As iPod, Virtual Concerts And A Great Jukebox In The Sky

* Note on the social jukebox.
In an environment where everybody is texting for songs to play a queue list needs to be created. However the order of texted requests does not reflect the popularity and desire of the selected song. Rather, popularity points should be accumulated by the voted songs in order to increase in ranking.
The song will gain popularity points and rank up so that the song can be played sooner.

TECH PROBLEMS for the SMS Jukebox functionality.
The SMS Jukebox relies on text messaging to a particular phone that is connected to a computer via bluetooth. The problem: The cellphone has a storage capacity for text messages. When this is full, the functionality of the SMS Jukebos ceases. This has to be solved by cuadruplicating * 50 the capacity. —- Or some type of automated form of deleting old messages.

Interactive Animation – AgentTito
New concept for my summer thesis idea!
* An interactive narrative as a means to teach and entertain the user an idea through means of comedy, interaction and animated characters.
Agent Tito
Concept
Using the cellphone as the portable remote controller.
- Optional use of the mobile phone enables installations to be interactive without the need to provide the user with a remote controller or direct interaction with the screen.
- Why? Some installations are meant not to be touched and therefore preventing damage or physical upkeep.
- Technique can be used to be displayed during a store’s closing hours and provide further interaction even during a store’s inactivity.
- Technique can also be used to be exposed to an audience through a projector and still provide interaction.
Interactive Narrative (Entertainment / Arts )
- Animation with user enabled interaction.
- Timeline animation leads to “choose your path” scenes. User has a choice for a character’s path.
- Cartoon and Humor style will be used to promote a friendly, positive and memorable experience.
Purpose
- To teach and communicate the user through an interactive-narrative game.
- Through animated cartoons and interaction a positive message will be taught and transmitted
