What is it?
Musiclab is a set of tools that can be used for pedagogical and experimentation purpouses, and it aims for a different approach on how to teach and enjoy music.
One part of the project is more traditionally pedagogical, as it tries to connect several centers thourgh a videoconference system with a main studio from where a musician performs a masterclass. In this case students from any of the connected centers will be able to ask questions and interact with the musician at the end of the class. Another modality of this more pedagogical part of the programme are the online auditions, which are short concerts from musicians who can interact with students as they play songs.
The other part of the Musiclab project is more experimental. We try to deal with issues that come up when trying to do music over the net. An example of this is latency, or delay, which we know is inherent in any connection. There are some phyisical aspects of playing online which will never disapear, like sound and like propagation times. But we believe it is possible to find new ways of playing that can overcome this difficulties.
Sequencial composition online:
The idea is to connect several places together and try to play a musical piece in synchrony over the internet.
How Can I Use It?
Who can use it?
What Do I Need?
The technical needs for a Musiclab session can vary from very heavy professional machinary, to conventional homestudio equipment.
What else?
This is an example of pedagogical session we did at Citilab between Barcelona and Hospitalet de Llobregat. In this case it is a drum class on mediterranean beats:
This is an example of experimentation session we did at Citilab between Barcelona and South Korean University of Keist. We tried to mix flamenco buleria patterns with Pansori, traditional South Korean music.
