Quote to synchronize all the world's mobile

All the mobile Earth can play a 'Symphony Mass' the next day at 11:11 h 11/11/2011 11s and 111ms

A group of volunteers has created a free application for mobile phones of all the earth can unite and form the largest orchestra of the story the next 11/11 at 11:11 h 11s and 111 milliseconds. Anyone wishing to join could do so through http://sinfoniamasiva.org page.

This initiative has many interesting facets, some non-obvious at first glance. On the one hand, creating a symphony Mass is an example of how basic science can be transformed into an instrument for generating unexpected collective emotions. It has something fascinating to know that the action you take with your phone is coordinated to the millisecond with another person you do not know who lives thousands of miles away. Moreover, the synchronized action of many mobile send a clear message: "together." Yes, together we can take action to transform our society. Is a positive message, without wishing to protest. Thus, the action will take all phones to play a minute of Beethoven's Fifth Symphony, accompanied by a beautiful video that the Earth is made up of musical notes start to dance to music.

Technically, the application that synchronizes your phone uses the protocols that set the time on the internet servers. The atomic clock marking the time of the Earth (called Universal Time Coordinated, UTC) is synchronized with other atomic clocks forming a network. Trivial development by synchronizing team has allowed each phone is synchronized with the UTC with an accuracy of 10 milliseconds, so maintained. Once achieved this synchronization, the technology is hidden and can create new emotions.

The precise use of time is possibly the new barrier that our society is ready to negotiate. A few years ago, GPS helped create all kinds of precise geo-based applications. We still need to incorporate the right time in our actions. It may be possible to create new ways to vote, opinion, or even make financial transactions using ultra-precise time stamps. We need some time to understand how to use the control to the nanosecond of our time.

Mass Symphony also has a small element of transcendence.

This is the first time we can synchronize on all the face of the Earth. Music's use it to raise beautiful. It's a timeless message, without creed or race, or profit, which we feel proud in the future.
