> Hi all,
>
> I just wanted to post and tell everyone about a fab new project that
> launched yesterday following a close collaboration between Reading
> Room, MOSI (Museum of Science & Industry), Wellcome Trust, Manchester
> Science Festival and Dr John Ashley Burgoyne and his team at the
> University of Amsterdam and Utrecht. We'd love feedback from anyone on
> the group.
>
> #HookedOnMusic is a new and (slightly addictive) HMTL 5 game that you
> can play at www.hookedonmusic.org.uk<http://www.hookedonmusic.org.uk>.
> The game asks users to select which tune they think is the catchiest
> or asks them to sing along and try to stay in time to gain points and
> achievements. There is some serious thinking behind the game, as
> scientists hope the results will aid future research into Alzheimer's.
> By being able to predict the catchiest musical fragments, researchers
> hope to come up with new ways to trigger memories and provide
> therapeutic benefits.
>
> It's been a really special project that brings together user
> experience design, gamification and science in the most amazing way
> and its been a lot of fun to be involved with. It has also presented
> some really interesting challenges along the way from a design and
> development point of view
>
> You can find more details regarding the background of the project here
> http://manchestersciencefestival.blogspot.co.uk/ and there are also
> full details on the game's website.
>
> Please do have a play - I keep getting stuck in the 80's genre mainly
> because I seem to get all my points there :)
>
> Hope you like it.
>
> Thanks!
