Blur FM
Launch projectBlur FM is the result of several years of experimentation in audio streaming technologies. In 2009, taking my last exams at University, I decided to create ARGENSONIX Net Radio. A few months later I could give more shape to the idea and launched Radio deUNA!, an interactive online radio that broadcast music with on-demand song requests.
With the need to give seriousness to the project, and due to the limitations of making payments to the record entities, one day I came up with the idea to reinvent Radio deUNA! in what it is now Blur FM: an online radio devoted entirely to independent music.
Blur FM is today a place aimed for those looking to discover new sounds. It's my playground to experiment. Experimentation, along with practice, really helps me figure out new techniques in design, front-end development, streaming technologies, among others.
Some of the achievements that I made thanks to Blur FM are:
- Audio playback through both Flash and Javascript widgets
- Design and implementation of mobile versions with native audio support in mobile browsers
- Blur FM Theater (in development): responsive slideshow with audio streaming and support for a wide variety of desktop and phone browsers
- .htaccess configuration for mobile and desktop redirection
- Design of promotional material for Facebook, Twitter and mailing
- Server configuration and software set up for streaming remotely through a 3G network
