This is my pitch, it's an idea. I'd need mega help from several community members.
My pitch is in the form of a conversation i'm having with a wonderful and extremely talented Btc-e member.
I'll leave his name out but let his words speak.
Hey ____ hope all is well!! I was wondering if you were up for joining in on producing a useful coin!:) pitch:
So while I was watching Ken Burns Jazz series I thought of a novel coin. Jazz coin. In a nutshell it would A. be a coin like most others. B. Have identifier attached to the hash tag (or however) when sent. C. have a dedicated webiste that used the identifiers to make music from the data.
Example a person would send a coin and give it an identifier of SN for snare drum or HH for horn hit etc. On the jazzcoin website users could filter the time signature/s, type of instruments and on and on. The transactions from wallets, exchanges etc would be the data that feeds the 'music'. The music generated would be as far as I know the first decentralized music ever attempted. It could yield new chord progressions, new melodies, new tonal moments etc.
"hey man,
I really like the concept, though I feel like have a centralized website would be a little antithetical to the bitcoin way of doing things. Perhaps this could be incorporated into the Jazzcoin reference client? Some sort of jazz-blockchain? 3rd party websites could then RPC the jazzcoin network to assemble the music that's being constructed over time. Though I'm pretty much swamped in other work I need to get done, I really love this idea and hope you pursue it. I may be able to lend a helping hand in the future, though I'm not sure when that would be exactly. How have you been otherwise?
Me:
good to hear from you! I heard you quit the ___? Life is good here, new baby. Too much winter though:S Yea the idea was to have the block chain remain independent and decentralized, the only difference would be that you would be able to add a few characters before the hash that third party sites would use as a trigger.
Third party would do a number of things, which could be user friendly for anyone and also if they want fully functional tool for trained musicians. Change keys, change sounds, sync midi, upload instrument sounds of their own change the time signature or even syncopate time signatures, arrange different data from several sources, exchanges, wallet transfers, merchant transactions and on and on... Who ever has an api I would guess? Sky is the limit. The whole idea would be to play with user generated random transactions to make new decentralized music.
So yea, messy but you get it.
Def**kingcentralized music!!!
Let's do it:)
