The Teams

Fiber: A VR exploration of the facets of a song. Demo prototype will be the song, Same Drugs by Chance the Rapper. Think "Song exploder" combined with Inception. You’ll walk into the song and the world it’s created. See an earlier prototype exploring Reckoner by Radiohead. They are expanding the recommended categories of the API by including information beyond attribution and metadata.

LÜM: An active and passive data collection system for Club Djs. Their interactive demo captures an audience's dancing/gestures(phone accelerometer) to inform and change a live DJ mix and/or capture response. Separate DJ and Venue dashboards yield insight into track choices and song moments. This is a great example of how the API can be used in combination with other data to create new meaning: in this case, identifying fan interest.

EchoWe: A sample marketplace that allows for content creators to clear copyright issues with their inspired or derivative works through pre-clearing tracks. Those same content creators can then continue the cycle by allowing for their works to be available on the marketplace for future works. By using blockchain's provenance and monetary distribution, they hope to create multi-leveled attribution that allows for people to capture and create complex licensing contracts easily.

DeepDIve: A community-focused platform that helps uncover an artist or musician's moments and the influences that stem from them. They are wire framing a website the specific example of Frank Ocean. They are also writing API Specs as an add-on to the OMI API because they are going beyond attribution to “influence” and narrative.
