Back Call for Creators: Apply for the Sónar Innovation Challenge

Call for Creators: Apply for the Sónar Innovation Challenge

28.03.2018

 

This year the MTG is once again collaborating with the Sónar+D festival to organize the Sónar Innovation Challenge (SIC).
 
SIC is a platform for the collaboration between innovative tech companies and the creative community (programmers, designers, artists) that aims to produce disruptive prototypes to be showcased in Sonar+D. The interaction between companies and creators happens through challenges proposed by the companies themselves. Challenges are open questions to the creative community, that can be approached from a technical and/or artistic perspective.
 

The call for creators is open

Creators from all around the world can sign up to participate in a challenge through the SIC website. After a selection process that considers background, gender balance, diversity and motivation, each challenge gets a team of 5 creators to work in a prototype within a unique collaborative environment together with company mentors. More information about how does the Sónar Innovation Challenge work can be found here.

Open challenges are the following:

  1. The composer’s assistant, sponsored by Jukedeck
  2. The future of education, sponsored by Alpha
  3. Music learning tools for people with motor disabilities, by the Music Technology Group (UPF)
  4. Empowering Artists and Creators: Transforming the Music Industry with Blockchain-based Funding, by Utopia Music
  5. Creative prototypes to display and raise awareness about hearing loss, by Amplifon
