how would you like the idea of creating collaborative #art through the #fediverse?
Learning collaboration with strangers:
#music:
- one starts recording a part of a possible track
- toot it
- others put another soundline on it
- ...until the first track is finished
- upload it to #mediaGoblin or else?
text:
- have a look what's happening here #shortstory #smallstory
paint/design:
- start something
- toot
- let others continue
universe is a #commons
What @paulfree14 suggests would make a nice challenge setup actually. :)
(actually even more intense version of this would be having one item walk around 30 days through 30 artists.)
Consider yourselves challenged. (or done so once daily sketch challenge of july is done) :)
(tagging @Curator @Ayior @KemoNine @Jennahos as they might be interested in this)
@Jennahos @[email protected] @Curator @eylul @Ayior
yeah, didn't expected positive responses coming so quick. :)
there's also an artist involved planing to set up a #MediaGoblin instance.
The hashtags we're thinking to use is #collaboArt as the general term. and then #collaboMusic to describe the specifics. And using both in one toot.
@emir
I like #collaboArt as the general hashtag.
and then ppl can maybe just add hashtags like #music.
As I think you can then search for #collaboArt #musik, or #collaboArt #drawing
Set up an instance. Everybody who wants to with on it signs up.
Each user works on part of the track - drums, bass, whatever. Represented by toots to that user's stream. Maybe tracker notion? Midi as Unicode did not seem like a good idea.
That instance's global stream represents the song. Run it through a sequencer.
this kind of music collaboration is very difficult to work on in serial way: adding layers to recordings will pretty much destroy what was started:
A makes a melody.
B adds a beat.
C adds a vocal
D adds a bassline, but cannot adjust the volume of the beat, which is now fighting for bass-space.
who decides when the track is finished?
@kemonine @eylul @Curator @paulfree14
couple of ideas:
A: use of multi-track FLAC files. eventually they will become huge.
B: use of a pool of recordings with various source sounds/melodies/beats, but then needed is:
C: use of benevolent dictator, who coordinates the creation of a song
D: use of common software, which limits who can participate.
E: final collage of "tiny compositions"
@paulfree14 @Curator @eylul @kemonine
+ couple of online collaborative projects:
The Disquiet Junto is a group in which musicians respond to weekly, fast-turnaround assignments to compose, record, and share new music. The idea is to use constraints as a springboard for creativity.

more on musical online collaborations:
Weeklybeats 2016 was a 52 week long music project in which artists composed and publicly released 1 song a week for the entire year. http://www.weeklybeats.com/
@paulfree14 @Curator @eylul @kemonine
and another format of online music collaboration is "Beat Cyphers", like for examples LA's TeamSupreme: Every week a different producer picks two samples and a BPM. The files get passed around, and everybody has roughly 1 hour to use the guidelines and make a beat.
