essentially, its a website where people can anonymously create music.
The restriction is that they can only add 4 bars of notes at a time.
It starts with a 'stub', a short melody.
If people like it, they can add for bars to extend it, this change shows up as a branch growing.
At any time,
a person can add more changes at any point of the music branch. 4 bars at a time. The music path, with the most changes, grows in thickness to indicate popularity. Color can also show popularity, if 'voting' is enabled.

[NotationToby] collaborative, sure, but branching? |
|
| |
Nice idea, but would probably produce something like <link> |
|
| |
Kind of like one of these longer HB discussions eh? |
|
| |
Would need a mechanism to enable playback through a particular "history" branch. Now it really starts to sound like the "consistent histories interpretation" of quantum theory. |
|
| |
There used to be a site called JamGlue that did something like this, but now I can't remember exactly. I like the idea, so [+]. |

This can be baked easily using existing software tools. MusicXML can represent the final product. Git source code manager can provide branching, merging and, collaboration support. Finally Github can supply internet hosting. All you need to do is bake it. |

I have the domain treemix.com. A friend and I
were planning on baking a similar idea, except we
were thinking that different musicians would add
"stem" tracks on top of a pre-existing track. |
|
| |
For example, you record a demo of a song, but it
needs horn parts and you'd like to swap out the
drum machine track with real drums. Collaborators
can download your demo, record their part, and
then submit their "stem" track to layer on top of
your original. |
|
| |
The web interface for a song shows you all the
tracks that have been submitted and lets you mix
it however you want. |
|
| |
Would also work well for beatmaker/rapper
collaborations. |
|
| |
Some of Aviary's tools were the closest we could
find to this when we were scoping it out. |
|
| |
Only general busy-ness keeps Treemix from
becoming a reality... |
|
| |
It would be interesting to determine if the music evolution path would converge to either just lots of cowbell or a bass beat. |
