"I don’t know exactly what the future will look like, but I’m not too worried about it. This sort of change tends to create as many good things as it kills. Indeed, the really interesting question is not what will happen to existing forms, but what new forms will appear."

Nailed!
Posting this from the Music Hack Day in Berlin where close to 100 hackers and coders meet companies like SoundCloud, Echo Nest, Native Instruments, RjDj and many more to build new mashups, instruments and web services in a 24-hour sprint on open API’s provided by these companies.
The odd part: it is kind of a side-event to a music conference that happened in Berlin this past week. I didn’t have the chance to attend every session or panel discussion but what I saw were old-school industry folks more or less wishing the internet away (to be fair: I also heard there were some more forward-looking tracks).
The Hack Day is a great platform where things get created rather than talked about. I’m glad to be here and don’t seem to have missed much during the conference.
