ShapeSeq for iPhone and iPod Touch
ShapeSeq is a deceptively simple musical instrument built to encourage instant play.
There are four primitive shapes to choose from representing four oscillators. As each shape is moved around the screen, the pitch and volume moves with it.
Every shape has it's own loop, and every movement is recorded on the loop for instant playback. As the loop can be varied by size and number of steps while it is playing, all kinds of new sounds and effects emerge.

A new category of error, as Channel 4 pulls a sketch about Michael Jackson just as the news comes in about his death, leading to several minutes of the Channel 4 ident being played silently instead of the segment.
This also highlights how much easier it has become to capture and re-publicise live-broadcast television errors, which I'm hoping will lead to greater archiving of these kinds of errors.
