Forget the canned default music programmed on your phone. Spektral Quartet has launched a brilliant project that brings new, fresh music to your device - and everywhere else you go. The quartet commissioned more than 40 composers across the country to write ringtones, alerts, and alarms. The result is Mobile Miniatures - dozens of tiny masterpieces for your phone. On Saturday, the Spektrals gave a ringtone party at Constellation, including the premiere performance of several pieces, curated listening stations on phones from olden days, and two ringtones composed live that night. I was thrilled to photograph the event and to walk among so many accomplished artists. Check out a few of my shots below, then go download some new ringtones!
