undersound is a proposal for a socially interactive music network in the tube. it will allow you to upload or download tracks at tube stations, and swap them with others on the move. the system will map the movements of tracks - who took what where - and each track is tagged with its point of origin - what station it 'belongs' to.
Each station's display will uniquely reflect information pertinent to that station so that users are presented with a quick visual overview of what the station has to offer. The display will function as a visual representation of the sum of all the individual actions that shape the undersound network.
it's pretty similar to what i had in mind for spi-fi. someone in melbourne asked me if anyone was working on the technology for the spi-fi stuff or had actually done it. the answer is, not for churches, but the thing itself is almost upon us. no doubt if undersound comes to fruition it will be detourned by people like grace for spiritual purposes.
