Cool Startup Conference - Music Hackday (NYC)
We're doing our best here Ztartup to keep track of the many cool #startup conferences happening around the US (and world). From HTML Tutorial to Startup Bootcamps, there are a ton of great events that we'll be featuring here at Ztartup.com (tips can always be sent to ztartup@gmail.com) -- for now here is our first featured event:
MUSIC HACKDAY NYC
Billed as "a full weekend of music hacking. Software + hardware + art + the web. Come build the future of music" Music Hackday took place from February 12-13, 2011 at New York's General Assembly .
All signs indicate that the weekend was a great success--as @Twilio tweeted on Sunday night:
#Musichackday is off to a great start, 72 hacks to present and a bunch of awesome prizes. http://live.musichackday.org
The whole twittersphere (twitsophere?) was buzzing with tweets about #musichackday -- you can see them all right here .
One idea from Music Hackday was Youzakk.com Youzakk.com
which "automatically generate playlists for venues based on Hunch-powered preferences of ppl currently checked-in on 4SQ" according to @kylecameron
Music Hackday was even featured on Tech Crunch in an article by Tarikh Korula (@Tarikh) called "Nerds Ditch Grammys for New York’s First Music Hackday."
By the time the dust had settled on Sunday night, the following three winners were announced:
Invisible...Stuff
Djtxt
and
Stingers
Congrats to all for an awesome event!!!
