Define Leisure: Choose a state of mind that you honestly consider leisure and design towards taking you to that state.

Leisure > Leisure is an activity that takes place in the moment. When you are at leisure you think neither of the past nor the future.

Music/sound is an phenomena that allows people to become immersed: "it happens to me that many times as I walk down the road on my way to...I start creating these songs or beats in my mind; they entertain and accompany me. I loose myself to them."

This system allows us to share and collaborate with our beats and songs as we walk in and out of geographical space:
"When I cross Hyde Park sometimes I get these nice sounds coming from the other people that are in the park. Those sounds feel really nice to me, so I tend to choose the path that keeps me within audible range if their sounds...sometimes I contribute with my own rhythm or voice...it's really beautiful I wish I had more time in the park to explore..."

The device is a simple object that can be attached to any existing wireless network, such as mobile phones and allows the exchange of personal beats.
