What are the symphonies?<\/strong><\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The Year is 2026. For the last 10 years a battle has raged between the assembled artists of Googliversal and those of Appsony to win the consumers hearts and minds with the most powerful pieces of viral art. Culture has collapsed as everyone now connects to each other via a global cerebaral network. The metrics of empathy and comedy have mutated with the bioscience of surprise and awe in an attempt to pull every last piece of excitement out of civilisation. Censorship and fake content have moulded everyones thoughts into a confused crowd sourced consciousness. The world has become an autonomous cacophony of status updates.<\/p>\n

.. but then something unpredictable happened, the internet filled up. With no more room to store data, it jammed and died. The world went silent.<\/p>\n

A glimmer of hope came from one machine called Sym. A lone computer unplugged from the web that contained fragments of some of the world greatest pieces of art from some of the most prolific artists of all time. A wandering artist attempted to reassemble the fragments the best he could. Using old chord charts and lyric sheets from the Great Wiki Libraries, the songs could now be brought to life and reignite the empty souls of the world. The songs were to be played over the old international broadband phone network from decades past. These songs would go on to be known as the Symphonies. The artist? Riffioso<\/p>\n
