iPhone’s Ocarina allows users to transform their console into a wind instrument based on the original clay whistle or flute. As people around the world attempt to play you are able to listen online.

Impressive but clumsy the digital players lack any mastery and the instrument itself is homogenised by its digitality. The dislocated sound is ephemeral and has a lonely, eerie and hypnotic quality.
