Way back in Episode 8, I brought you some footage from one of the Mobile Monday Silicon Valley events. Right toward the end of the video, there’s a brief interview with Martin Tannerfors from the Samsung Mobile Innovator programme.
Martin told me they had some rather nifty concepts in development and asked if I’d be interested in coming down to film them. The conversation continued over a few weeks and it didn’t look like I’d manage to make it to their offices due to an international travel schedule clash. Thankfully Martin offered to step in and cover MDTV’s travel costs and thus I’m rather delighted to be able to bring you a compilation of the footage I shot of Samsung Caxixi.
Caxixi is their mobile musical instrument software, made internally by some of Samsung’s simply brilliant engineers. Caxixi is a free download for any Samsung Omnia owner who’d like to do something a little bit different with their handset. (They’ve already had tens of thousands of downloads from SamsungCaxixi.com).
The software uses the Omnia’s internal sensors to play studio-quality sounds on demand. You know what, let me stop talkingtyping and show you. Have a watch, it’s genius!
