Music Visualisation: Arts, Crafts, Heritage

In many parts of the world -and especially where music streaming is yet to make it's mark- traditional music still plays an significant role in local economies.

Mamadou Diabate, Kora Player From Mali

From event management, concerts, instrument building, social and community events such as dance, to attracting tourists or simply hungry and thirsty consumers, these are small but vital revenue flows.

Musicians having managed the leap to an international stage can end up showcasing culture and craftsmanship in ways that have profound impact on traveller's itineries.

How many people have been drawn to Senegal, Ghana or Mali, for example, simply to experience at first hand how their choice of (concert-inspired) Kora is built and played by local masters, and perhaps take part in a week or two of workshops?

Back home, other choices - between support to local craftsmen and investment in increasingly automated factories - challenge many core values, yet is one few people give much thought.

With this platform, people will have a window onto other cultures, the chance to learn from each other, and of course to trade.
