We just started talking a little bit, and when I finished up at MIT, he pulled me in to work together with him on this project that was just beginning - about a year ago. That’s where I met Alex Chen, who’s part of Google Creative Lab.

I got invited to present at Moogfest, which is this awesome music festival hosted by Moog. My research is actually all about musical tinkerings: helping people learn by playing around with music technologies in order to make things. I graduated recently from MIT Media Lab, where I did my Ph.D. How’d you get involved with this project? Inverse spoke with Eric Rosenbaum, who’s been with the project since, basically, its conception. The hope, here, is twofold: one, that people will get inspired by the act of creation two, that coders will take the open source code and make more awesome web-music tools. There are currently 12 experiments, all of which have open source code, and all of which are fantastic, instructional, worthwhile time-wasters. On Wednesday, Google released its Chrome Music Lab, an interactive way for people of all ages to both learn and create music.
