Second Meeting at IRCAM, Paris
The next RAPID MIX meeting will be at IRCAM in Paris from the 20th – 22nd May.
This meeting is to plan and prepare for the workshops and user centred design sessions we will be doing before and during the Barcelona Hackday. We will be reviewing the different technologies that the partners can bring for people to work with, think about some early prototpyes and prepare strategies and challenges for the hackers. We’re excited about bringing these different technologies together and start putting them in the hands of artists, musicians, programmers and who are going to be using them.
Barcelona Kickoff Meeting!
We are in Barcelona at the Music Technology group, UPF for our long awaited kick off meeting for our new EC Horizon2020 funded ICT project, RAPID MIX. This is an initial meeting for all the partners to meet each other, discuss the different work packages that constitute the project, and start to get inspired by sharing research, products and technologies.
Nice to feel welcome with wayfinding!
