Billboard biz

Tatsuya had a long interview with Mark Frieser, contributing writer of Billboard biz and founder of Sync Summit /Sync Exchange.

This was originally held as a series of interviews on Billboard biz he has been working on from the standpoint of “possibilities of music licensing business,” and the article has been pre-published on Sync Exchange and Music2Deal websites (as well as Blog page on this website). Publication on Billboard.com is due in this early summer.

While we comprehensively covered many topics about music licensing business, these are based on what he has actually experienced and learned for years. We hope this article will be helpful for independent musicians and publishers who have been exploring possibilities of the music business on a daily basis.

If you’re interested in Mark’s other interviews with Gerald Casale (Devo), Martyn Ware (Heaven 17), Chuck D (Public Enemy), Mathew Knowles (Music World Entertainment, and Beyonce’s father), etc., check out Billboard.biz and Sync Summit pages. These precious talks with the music industry greats should be helpful for you as well.

(1/2) その昔「だまし絵」のエッシャーについて書かれた本を色々読んだ時期があった。『ゲーデル、エッシャー、バッハ―あるいは不思議の環』は今でも読み継がれている名著で、現在のAIの設計にも影響を与えたであろう「自己言及」について深堀りしている。ただ、著者が本当に模索していたのは、ここでは説明しきれていない(そして今のAI開発者が見落としがちな)『非言語的な混沌(カオス)の世界』に対する人間の認知の仕組みではなかったかと思う。

AIや機械学習の普及で、フィールドワーク(野外調査)をしない研究者が増えているという。開花時期の予測や鳥の移動パターンの観察など、データサイエンスが可能にする領域は多く、テクノロジーの貢献は大きい。ただ、それが現場経験の価値を失わせるわけではない。「自然に触れずして自然を研究する」ことに、ワクワクを感じ続けられるかは、その人の取り組み方や動機次第だと思う。音楽も同じようなところがある。

この「Rambler and Canter」は、田舎道を散策し、ときに駆けるような牧歌的な風景をイメージして作った曲。最初『Here and You』(2002)に収録されたこの曲、『New Classics Vol.1』(2018)のリリースにあたり、リズムや音のメリハリを調整した。当初は乗馬の映像を合わせていたが印象が弱く、シンクロ感のあるパンチの効いた素材を探すうちに、なぜか米国小売チェーンのCM風ショート動画に変貌してしまった(笑)。
