The online community of the internet trend seekers
At the beginning there was basic radio, afterwards came all kinds of apparatus from where to listen to the radio and then came the possibility to listen to your favourite radio station from the web, now one can create its own station. ¿The difference? A matter of personal choice.

Now that the user is again the king, he gets to choose, his preference and opinions are taken into account.  He is asked to interact and participate. To use a name, a nick, passwords. Letting others know about his choices, what he likes and dislikes, and the reasons behind his selections.

But we have already seen ad-hoc radio stations in the web. What musicovery.com offers in terms of tailor made is first a definition of the environment in terms of moods, been positive or energetic, relaxing… Afterwards comes the tempo, can be less or more danceable. Once done with these, the user can begin with his favourite tunes!

If music has a direct influence in our temper then why leave it to someone else choices our mood for the rest of the day?

ADD-ART. Art replaces ads by Ana Otero, 04 October 2008
Are you tired of all ad banners you have to see every time you check out a website? Imagine that, instead of advertisement, those spaces would be filled by art. Actually, this is possible thanks to the “Add-Art” project by Brooklyn-based artist Steve Lambert.

“Add-Art” is a Firefox extension which replaces advertising images on web pages with art images from a curated database. This way, “Add-Art” turns your browser into an art gallery with artwork by a young contemporary artist. “Add-Art” is collaborative project based on open source technologies developed at the Eyebeam OpenLab, where Steve is a Senior Fellow, with the support of Rhizome Comissions and open to the collaboration of curators.

If you are interested on replacing ads by art, go to http://add-art.org/. In this small website you can download the “Add-Art” plug-in, find the instructions to install it and also information on the current and past artists and curators.

They don’t believe in large-scale productions, dictated by season, or in big industrial systems. What they believe in are limited editions, and in what’s called 'social care manufacturing', i.e. items manufactured by people who need a hand getting back to work again, such as the association for the reintegration of women prisoners, who’ve actually carried out part of the work here.

Just4fun is a very simple, functional and stylish website. It has availed of options offered by Internet to create online shops, like Bigcartel, which provide all the necessary tools for purchasing on the Internet, and a very safe payment method, Paypal, where the user opens an account and is able to manage purchases, payments, transfers, etc.

Their clothes are original, fun and adventurous, and are meant for people who know how to wear them, how to move in them and who’ll put them on to go out dancing. They also like to be photographed in them. Because nobody else has worn those leggings before. And whoever’s wearing them now, won’t take them off.

If you’re one of those who discovers artists and songs long before your DJ friends or even the most cutting-edge radio stations, and you’d like to share your good musical taste, POPCUTS.COM is the place to reap the benefits of buying and downloading music.  

Basically POPCUTS business involves rewarding trendsetters for discovering new songs with the potential to become pop hits (for example all those whose iPods featured music by artists like Justice, Feist, CSS or Datarock before they were heard in the Apple commercials). Everything starts by buying a song, usually at a price of 99 US cents. Depending on its popularity whoever purchases it is acknowledged and receives money to buy more music on the site. Not only fair, but fun too!   

The site has a back-catalogue of nearly 700 songs and features a platform for independent artists to create their own online stores and embed them in MySpace or Facebook. POPCUTS keeps 10-20% of every sale.  

Even though the project is so new (it started off in August) and daring, it stands out from the hundreds of existing music sites because of its original innovative business model.

LIVE JOURNAL. Weblog network by PTQK, 04 October 2008
Although little-known in Spanish-speaking climes, Live Journal (better known as LJ) is a well established project in the world of blogging.

First of all, because it uses open source and is actively involved in the campaign for free software, and secondly, because it combines blogging with an efficient system for setting up and maintaining social networks. 

Each user has his own "Friends Page", allowing him to make contact with other bloggers and set up communities or discussion forums. And like other open source projects, part of the job of running LJ is done by volunteers from within the community. 

LJ isn’t just a web hosting software. It’s a highly interconnected weblog network, where the users’ feeling of community plays a vital role.

Even though its purchase by Six Apart in 2005 saw the community aspect lose some weight, LJ continues to be a remarkable phenomenon, thanks to its ability to successfully combine technology and social interplay.

Ada - Intelligent Space: An artificial creature for the Swiss Expo.02.Neuchatel (Switzerland) Ada is an entertainment exhibit that is able to interact with many people simultaneously, using a language of light and sound. “A visit to Ada takes us inside a strange, clever and lively but nonetheless artificial being named after Ada Lovelace, a pioneer in the history of information technology. Like Robotics, this exhibition is also about artificial intelligence. However, it differs from Robotics in that it is not geared to presenting machines that resemble human beings. Ada works rather like the human nervous system. She tries to make contact with her visitors, to recognize them and distinguish between them. She wants her guests to play with her – using light, sound and movement. All the resulting activities and relationships are utterly spontaneous. Ada is always ready to adapt to new situations, and she never stops learning. And a light-hearted side of science that is seldom displayed is very much in evidence at this exhibition.” http://ada.ini.ethz.ch/ http://www.expo-archive.ch

Primero fue el blanco, ahora el negro y el metàlico. machitosh nos ha sumergido en la modernidad monocroma y todos como una religión hemos seguido su doctrina. Pero la explosión de color ha llegado, y lo vemos por todas parte, los clubs, las night parties, los modernos, los roqueros de la new rave. Pues bien ahora también en el iPod, en la Blackberry, la Palm, el iMac... Una nueva dictadura, la del color, ha explotado en los pequeños gadgets a los que todos adoramos y estamos enganchados.

Rekord your fucking name. Live Session. Jueves 31 de Enero a las 22:00 hs. en Almazen c. Guifré, 9 bajos · Barcelona Rekord your fucking name es un proyecto nacido en Barcelona de la mano de Ramón Piquero (vocalista) y Carlos Santos (programaciones), que empezó a dar sus primeros pasos a comienzos del 2006. La unión de inquietudes, gustos e ideas da lugar a un sonido que pretenden sea lisérgico, oscuro y mágico. Un aterrizaje en el mundo de estilos, que por su capacidad de rotación trazan sus movimientos elípticos abrazando el miminal, el electro en un dramatismo inundado de conmoción. Un idioma propio para renovar y acariciar, haciendo peripecias entre el down-tempo, la electrónica subversiva de Warp y el fetichismo salvaje de My Demon Lover. “Live” es una palabra a la que intentan hacer honor en sus conciertos acercando al que les escucha a una atmósfera cálida de la que resulte difícil escapar.

IN-SONORA es una asociación cultural creada para apoyar y dar visualidad a propuestas artísticas experimentales relacionadas con la interactividad y/o lo sonoro, desde un punto de vista amplio y multidisciplinal. Desde 2005 IN-SONORA apuesta por un encuentro anual que permita aunar instalaciones y objetos sonoros/interactivos, eventos experimentales, debates y presentaciones, así como de ir generando un archivo con documentación de trabajos de esta naturaleza. Todo ello mediante una convocatoria internacional pública que apuesta principalmente por artistas emergentes. Por el momento IN-SONORA pone de su parte un gran esfuerzo humano, da cierta covertura como espacio de investigación, y desarrolla toda una importante labor comunicadora y de difusión, mediante boletines digitales, web, notas de prensa, catálogos... pero aspira a conseguir un mayor apoyo de entidades e instituciones para poder ofrecer la ayuda económica y de medios necesaria para estas manifestaciones artísticas tan específicas.
