E-mail the Kats here! It's Kat Quiz time: what is the biggest challenge facing the music world today? I would have answered the same way, until I recently heard a Stanford Technology Ventures podcast presentation here by the co-founders of a U. After listening to the podcast, this Kat is prepared to entertain the thought that the "problem" with this answer is that, while it may be so very right, it also may be so very wrong.

From the view of Smule, the real issue is that for a century or more, we have let technology disrupt the fundamental value of music to society.

What technology has helped to destroy in the world of music, technology now has the capacity to rebuild. What does this Kat mean? Read on. First, the problem: the basic premise is that music is a form of expression and each of us has within us to create his or her own manner of musical expression. However, as a society, we have turned the emphasis on music from active participation to passive consumption. Until the 20th century, most music was "consumed" actively.

People shared musical experiences, either in the home or in social settings that placed the emphasis on "performing" the music. There is no better example of this ethos than the story line of the mythological Broadway musical by Meredith Wilson of 50 years ago-- The Music Man, here. The plot focuses on a con artist, calling himself Professor Harold Hill, who convinces the gullible residents of a small town in Iowa, the heartland of the country, that the best way for them to combat the perceived moral decline of their youth is to set up a youth band.

Hill's gig was to sell the equipment and run. Soppy Broadway being what it was then, Hill takes a fancy to Marian the Librarian and she convinces him that he must stay the course and actually provide the residents with the promised youth band.

And so he does, with the youngsters blaring away on their instruments, cacophonic to outside ears, but a source of uncontrollable joy for the deliriously joyful parents. How did Hill convince them to buy into his scheme.

Simple, through the iconic song, "Seventy-Six Trombones", he conjured up the imagery of a youth band, in which all of the town's youth takes part. And so the immortal lyrics: Seventy-six trombones led the big parade With a hundred and ten cornets close at hand. They were followed by rows and rows of the finest virtuo- Sos, the cream of ev'ry famous band. Seventy-six trombones caught the morning sun With a hundred and ten cornets right behind There were more than a thousand reeds Springing up like weeds There were horns of ev'ry shape and kind.

There were copper bottom tympani in horse platoons Thundering, thundering all along the way. Double bell euphoniums and big bassoons, Each bassoon having its big, fat say!

Ambassadors of Harmony - Seventy-Six Trombones [from The Music Man]

There were fifty mounted cannon in the battery Thundering, thundering louder than before Clarinets of ev'ry size And trumpeters who'd improvise A full octave higher than the score! As a matter of ethos, what took place in "The Music Man" could also have been imagined for a town in Europe or elsewhere. Music was social, active, expressive and participatory.

But then, technology got in the way. Radio and television, records and CDs, often viewed as the means for the broader distribution of music, presumably a good thing, in fact struck at the very heart of the social experience of music, turning most of us into passive consumers of music created and performed by a tiny number of persons, being other than ourselves. Enter Smule. It relies on artificial intelligence and other technologies to produce its apps. Instead of bringing together avid players across continents to play computer games, Smule seeks to enable persons in disparate locations to make music together.

The technology can apparently rework one's voice, so even the strident monotones of this Kat are made sufficiently anodyne so as to enable him to join in the musical experience and presumably to payback its well-known investors, whom after all, have put their money into Smule for hard-nosed commercial reasons.

Presumably Smule is not alone and there are other companies seeking to monetize music by reconverting it from a passive to an active, participatory experience through the use of social media and cutting-edge technology. That said, this Kat still wonders what is the realistic scope for the up-take of their products. Being passive consumers of content may well be what we want as a society.

With data showing average television viewing amounting to five hours or more a day in some countries, passive is apparently what we are, and passive is what we get. Despite Professor Harold Hill, maybe there is nothing inherently preferable with active over passive when it comes to music. Subscribe to: Post Comments Atom.
