Die re:publica ist eines der weltweit wichtigsten Events zu den Themen der digitalen Gesellschaft. Seit ihren Anfängen 2007 mit 700 BloggerInnen hat sie sich zu einer "Gesellschaftskonferenz" mit zuletzt 7000 TeilnehmerInnen aus allen Sparten entwickelt. Hier vermitteln die VertreterInnen der digitalen Gesellschaft Wissen und Handlungskompetenz und diskutieren die Weiterentwicklung der Wissensgesellschaft. Sie vernetzen sich mit einem heterogenen Mix aus AktivistInnen, WissenschaftlerInnen, HackerInnen, UnternehmerInnen, NGOs, JournalistInnen, BloggerInnen, Social Media- und Marketing-ExpertInnen und vielen mehr. Dadurch entstehen Innovationen und Synergien zwischen Netzpolitik, digitalem Marketing, Netz-Technologie, der digitalen Gesellschaft und (Pop-)Kultur. Rund 44 Prozent der Gäste auf der re:publica sind weiblich, kaum eine andere Veranstaltung mit vergleichbarer Ausrichtung kann eine ähnlich ausgewogene BesucherInnenstruktur vorweisen. \ The re:publica is one of the largest and most exciting conferences about digital culture in the world...

Start Ups in MusicTech
Room: Stage L

Making music is no longer a matter of expensive equipment and infrastructures. Start-ups penetrate the field of music production by enabling collaborative composing in realtime or writing musical sequences with an algorithm. How does the relation between producers and consumers change, when neither a studio nor a professional musician is required to realise a musical vision? How have new technologies accelerated the shifting of hierarchies?
In the meantime, musicians and technicians cut out innovative paths to reinterpret making music and experiencing music. What happens when artists, hackers, and engineers imagine music together? Access to new technologies and machines as well as inspirations from product or fashion design lead the way to the future of music experience.
Start ups:
Soundtrap is known as the most user-friendly online music recording studio there is. It works on all devices: you can e.g. start making a song on your Chromebook or Windows machine, invite a guitarist friend who is using a Mac, find a keyboard player to collaborate with using an iPad on the other side of the globe and finish the song with a great vocalist on the street using an Android smartphone.
At Soundbrenner we’re developing a new professional tool for musical practice and performance: A smart vibrating metronome. You can connect one or more Soundbrenner Pulse to your smartphone to sync them up, and instead of only making an audible click, it is vibrating to the beat. You can wear it on your wrist, arm or ankle, customise the rhythm, lights, and vibration waveforms. With the Soundbrenner DAW Tools for Mac you can even connect it to any desktop production software.
Feeling the beat is a revolution in rhythm practice: Since 2016 we shipped the Soundbrenner Pulse to 3000 musicians worldwide. We also won the Best in Show award at NAMM 2016, the world’s biggest music gear exhibition.
