i see. it would be useful for people with poor eyesight too. so
supercollider would become the standard sound server for that
device with a common interface available to any application running
on that device? for example, many years ago if you wanted to make
sound on a commodore 64 you had to use the SID chip.
i don't know what the standard way of making sound on a mobile
phone is but mine has something like a very simple GM MIDI set and
sample playback facilities. don't think it does granular synthesis
though.
wrong end of stick or wrong stick entirely? :)

Not sure about your end of that stick, this one appears to have
more than two.
What I meant was that one could use SC server to create auditory
or multi-modal displays for a wide range of devices. Say you want
to use your mp3 player while skating in a city and you cannot look
at that damn little screen without killing some innocent
pedestrians or stopping. Imagine you could interact with it only
by auditory feedback (and this is by no means just speech or
beeps) without turning your eye away from whatever you are doing.
Cool, right?

right, on a mobile phone you want to implement SC server so it
can be accessed by all apps running on the phone? you could then
have little music sequencers and stuff running on the phone and
make use of all the number pad buttons for the UI.
would be quite something.... but have i got the wrong end of the
stick?

With so much encouragement I really feel tempted...
I am aware of the implications and as I said I am just thinking
aloud without having done much research into it. However, the
motivation behind it is not so much to have SuperCollider on
mobile devices as a toy that plays music (the ipod does a fairly
good job in that without SC), but as a sound synthesiser that
could enrich the user interaction with such devices. Having more
than polyphonic ring tones on mobiles would open some
possibilities in the design, wouldnt it?
