Remote Concerts

Project Description

This project is about in what way can online concerts be conducted and billed so that visitors are satisfied and artists can earn a living. The main objective of the project is to overcome the in-site aspect of concerts, while keeping all the salient aspects of the real-life experience, for both artists and concert attendants.

Group collaboration

At the beginning of the project we discussed our strenghts and weaknesses and how we want to collaborate during the project. Belbins Team role model serves as a basic concept how we define our roles.

Background Knowledge on Music Industry

Contextual Inquiry

Contextual Inquiry can be seen as a combinational use of different methods with the goal to disclose work structures, explore usage and environment of existing technology, and get ideas about future development of a product or system.
It usually can be accomplished within four steps:

1. narrowing down the question or purpose
2. choosing data collection method
3. investigating in the context
4. analysing and interpreting the findings

Since music events depend on visitors and artists our Contextual Inquiry gets devided on these sub groups.

Users' perspective

We define users as people who have experience with virtual music events. A sub category of users are people who have experience with other virtual events not related to music, since some of the insights might be transferable.

Artists' perspective

We define artists as people who have experience performing in front of others, either live or virtual since both can deliver insights about music events.
