Sarah Buxton's Augmented Reality Video
You know reality TV? Well, this is nothing like that. Sarah Buxton's "Outside My Window" is the first-ever augmented reality music video created by a country artist, and it allows you to become an active participant in this new 3-D video experience. All you have to do is print this symbol and then hold it up to your computer's Web cam. That will bring the music video to virtual life. (If you don’t have a Web cam, all you'll see is an empty screen here, but you can still share in the experience at CMT.com.) The whole point of augmented reality is to use technology to merge your physical real-world environment with virtual computer-generated imagery. Pretty cool stuff, I think. "Outside My Window" is featured on Buxton's self-titled debut album to be released Tuesday (Feb. 23) on Lyric Street Records. Physical and digital copies of the album will also contain another augmented reality marker that will offer users an entirely different experience, including the chance to become Buxton's virtual guitar player.

Mikey says:
Sarah is a nobody. Taylor Swift is the queen of country music! If it wasn’t for Taylor country music would no longer exist!
Peacock Queen says:
I love this song by Sarah Buxton, and for the record, country music has many greats and it will exist long after Taylor is gone.

Well, well, well….The internet does it again! A great song…a great artist, and a great video! Mikey needs to be put right…Taylor Swift is great, but so is George Strait…….and so is Sarah Buxton! Music is for everyone and thats the way it should be. This song and Sarah’s vocal makes my heart smile, and thats all that matters to me.

Mikey , TS is not country she is a pop singer and used to be called by some a pop princess until the grammy disaster. Her fans are mostly young fans who particularly listen to pop stations just like my son and my daughter used to until she outgrew her music recently and moved on. They are both not country fans at all. TS is not a country Queen by any means. But you`re a fan so you think she is but lots of people from other demographics are not.
