Longplayer is a self-extending composition by British composer and musician Jem Finer which is designed to continue for 1000 years. It started to play at midnight on 1 January 2000, and if all goes as planned, it will continue without repetition until 31 December 2999.
Longplayer can be played on any format - except for record or 8 track players, cassette tapes and any other devices created prior to the early 1990s - including ones not yet invented, and is thus not tied to any one form of technology. There have also been several live performances and future performances continue to be planned. It began as an original commission by arts organisation Artangel and is currently maintained by the Longplayer Trust[1] and is located in Trinity Buoy Wharf on the north bank of the River Thames.
