Plenty of lakes to swim in around here. Some with no motor boats, but you’d need a car and decent weather or a wet suit.
Tyshawn Sorey and Mark Guiliana are two of the best jazz drummers out there now.
All of this has been dedicated to the public domain using the CC0 waiver and can be found on GitHub. https://github.com/songcamp/cc0lab
The minting UI was created using a modified version of the public-assembly/zora-drops-utils package.
For those interested in the tech, the site was built with Nextjs 13 on Vercel, using the experimental “appDir” feature and react server components. The UI design is based on rio—the plan9 window manager—and implemented using tailwindcss and react.
For context, this is an experiment. Our thesis is that putting CC0 music onchain and creating a brand around it will create an environment that others want to engage in and that this will drive value back to the creators through the brand and NFT sales. Only time will tell, but initial interest has been strong.
There you’ll find a mixtape of 16 songs by 18 musicians in 2 weeks at the end of the Chaos project. The mixtape, tracks, and stems are CC0 and entirely free to use. However, we’ve released the mixtape as an open edition on Zora and won’t be releasing the stems until 77 tokens have been minted—but we’re almost
I’m excited to share a fun experiment I helped to @launch this week with Songcamp. It’s called CC0lab and you can check it out here: https://cc0lab.songcamp.band
I’ve been lucky enough to have two amazing mentors as a musician and audio engineer. In my experience some of the best doers are also the best teachers and teaching at the level isn’t easy. It takes a special kind of person to do both.
Nice. I’ll be curious to see how that plays out.
Yes, I suppose so, at least in the sense that all the information you need to reproduce the song is right there in the performance or recording.
Does anybody else on FC like to think about music? Just wanted to say that public domain is the natural state of music. With CC0, music can be returned to it’s natural state. Copyright is optional.
Yep, that article plus recent events may be what started this line of thinking for me. I agree with this sentiment from the conclusion of the article: > In many ways, web3 was just a cool demo. But let's come up with something better.
Yes! Thank you. I like the examples you chose. I've also noticed that using a fluffy term like web3 introduces some risk, since it is easily coopted and can be made to mean something other than what you intended.
I've heard some noise about squad wallets recently and I think I need one. How would you go about setting up a squad wallet today? For clarity what I'm referring to is essentially a normal EOA wallet that multiple people can use securely without sharing a seed phrase.
Is web3 still a useful term? It's not well defined and means different things to different people. I find myself moving towards more specific and self-describing terms like onchain. Do you still use "web3" or do you have other terms you prefer?
