[edit] About the hack
This hack is a proof-of-concept for a gestural-based music reccomender. It makes use of the Musipedia database, that can handle melodic contour queries (for example... some thing like "up-down-down-down-up"), and generates queries by analysing the movement of the phone. In this way, the user can shape naturally contours and discover songs that follow them.

[edit] What APIs, tools or kit did you use?
- It's a simple webpage, plain HTML + JS. I wanted to use Musipedia API and integrate more services, but I couldn't get it to work.
[edit] Anything left to do
- Get it to speak to the API so it can fetch individual song names and stream them via Deezer or similar API's, all on the mobile browser.
- Improve the gesture detection algorithm. A lot.
- Some eye candy...
