Abstract

While listening to music is mainly an individual experience, it also holds social significance by acting as a ground for interaction and a means for self-expression. In this paper we report the design and field testing of a service for collaborative music listening among friends in a mobile context. The prototype, Social Playlist, is a shared music channel where music is selected by its members according to their current activities and states of mind. Our findings suggest that Social Playlist enables self-expression, discovery about friends and touch points in the shared listening context. To support ongoing use, we suggest a smooth integration between mobile collaborative services and personal music associations and adopting features for resolving tensions arising from different music preferences in a collaborative playlist.
