PANEL: THE CONSUMER AND THE MACHINE
Music has tremendous influence on people’s behaviour and wellbeing while simultaneously their psychological response to music and the related behaviour is changing how music is consumed.
The influence of this research on machine learning and AI has simplified the discovery of new music and is a useful addition to the user experience while on the other hand removes control over our own conscious choice and consumption. This also poses questions of how marketing and sales in the music industry benefit or suffer from this development.

PANEL: NEW BUSINESS MODELS
Technology is disrupting the music industry. Both artists and labels have to navigate a new
landscape that balances between a collapse of music revenue generation as we know it and
newly emerging opportunities to substitute old models. Instead of record sales, sync deals across
new platforms and live performances are now the lifeblood of the industry. The fan is playing a
central role in this shift: personal expectation, proximity and price for the consumer are setting
trends such as customisation and more immersive dynamic experiences.

PANEL: AR/VR - NEW PLATFORMS
With new technology emerging on a daily basis there are higher expectations and possibilities to
enhance the audience experience. In a more and more visually dominated world, user interfaces
will become more simple yet multi-functional, artwork has to transcend its two-dimensional state
and video will give way to more life-like scenarios.
Virtual Reality is paving the way to delve into simulated worlds, Augmented Reality and holographic devices add exciting new layers on top of the real world and there is groundbreaking research to make your thoughts visible through Brain Computer Interfaces.
Imagine what is possible by combining HoloLens and BCI’s: get inside the creative mind of the
artist and find out what’s really behind your favourite song, re-shape and create sounds with the
power of your brain and share the experience with your friends and fans on a whole new level.

COOL ICONS, CO-PRESENCE, AND SOCIAL MEDIA
Social media has transformed cool by collapsing the distance between youth culture and musicians. In popular music, cool once stood for defiant rebellious music embodied by elusive mysterious artists seen at rare concerts. Cool now stands for artists who seem friendly and available, sharing their lives on Twitter or websites. Cool icons were once aspirational models of defiance; now they are relatable social friends. Can the music industry take advantage of this shift?

PANEL: MULTI-CHANNEL NETWORKS & USER CONTENT
With new technologies and creative tools available to everyone, we have truly arrived at the democratisation of the Internet. While the once traditional formats of production, be if film, TV and indeed music video was only for the big fish, the minnows have now inherited the ocean. But how are such technologies and multi channel networks opening the doors for fans and consumers in general to become the producer, and how can such new models create opportunities for artists.

Virtual instruments, recording studios and Brain Computer Interfaces give access to a whole new
world of creativity and collaboration while also distancing people from the physical world, actual skills and posing ethical issues of personal privacy and responsibility of using BCI’s.
Autonomous music education is hugely influenced by learning through colours using Augmented
Reality, which is based on synaesthetics; seeing music as colours. Yet, Virtual Reality can be more
immersive by skilling up through actual movements and feedback. Which will be the technology of
the future? Or is there room for both?
