Artist Enablers & New Sonic Vista

The winter edition, made with Berlin Design Network and Berlin Partner. Five presenters, and a programme that ran from neurotech through to the business of being an independent artist.

Tobenna Emekwuru presented Music Minds, which pulls producers, engineers, studios, educators and marketers into one place an artist can trust. Dani Valkova showed GOGIA, where sound and light are used to tune emotional state and cognitive performance, and sound is treated as something you can measure. Fronx Wurmus demonstrated MusicMapper, built on the observation that audio machine-learning models now run fast enough on a laptop to organise a library without categorising it first. Bruna Guarnieri presented plantasia.space, a platform for regenerative music where recordings are released so listeners can rebuild them into something else. Tim Summers closed with the spatial performance format he has been developing with Schallgeber and the Mahler Chamber Orchestra.
