A group of students of the University of Michigan are attending classes with instructor Georg Essl, wherein they are learning the art of building, designing and playing the iPhone as a music instrument. In this new course, the Mobile Phone Ensemble, iPhones are being used as musical instruments, and to show how they do this, the students will be performing as the world’s first iPhone orchestra at a public concert slated for December 9. We’ve seen the iPhone Ocarina before, but this mass scale music generation with the iPhones is going to be one of its kind event. The iPhones displays, microphones, compasses, accelerometers and wireless sensors have all been tweaked to help produce music from them. See you at the gala. Till the enjoy the video after the jump.
