Episode #35: Disruption or Disconnect

Episode 35

January 17, 2016 — 69 mins

Imogen Heap joins us in the studio this week as we move past our starstruck haze, to get to the bottom of why, in our age of the internet, many artists are struggling to get a fair deal. She is hoping to change all that, using a technology that could revolutionize the way music is produced and shared. Heap is one of a group of artists and coders who are using blockchain technology to launch and distribute music. Blockchain technology aims to record all recent transactions on a network and file them back as a permanent database. She’s also the only female artist to have won a Grammy for engineering. So, I think she knows what she’s talking about. In addition, past guest Tony Sakich loved being on the show so much he joins us this week on the roundtable. IMOGEN HEAP IS ON THE SHOW! A monstrous psychedelic bubble just exploded in our minds.
