SATURDAY 12TH OF MARCH
Workshop med Mirror Music
· Music Collaboration: How do we tell stories with music?

We consume more music today than ever before, but how aware are we actually of how music affects us? Mirror Music demonstrates new ways to create, perform and use music. Together participants will contribute to the creation of “The Sound of Southern Sweden Creatives at SXSW” by collaboratively “hacking” the ways we create music.

Experience and be a part of a musical performance and join in a discussion about how music affects us humans based on research and empirical knowledge. Then collaboratively create music and witness the premier of “The Sound of Southern Sweden Creatives at SXSW.”

With a background in music composition, entrepreneurship and education,http://www.mirrormusic.se makes it possible for you to take control of howyour business sounds and how you affect your environment. Music and sound are the fastest way to people's emotions – so you should use it to strengthen your brand, but use it wisely! Mirror Music – “We remix business with pleasure.”

SUNDAY 13TH OF MARCH
Our Future Selves
· Our Future Selves
A small group of domain experts and passionate people will come together for an intimate workshop session around the big question, “Who will we be in the future?”

We are already connected around the clock, but in the future a flow of data will be part of every experience we have. Each day there are more and more scenarios that challenge our relationship with ourselves and the world around us. Just as third parties are developing a deep understanding of our behaviors, we can use these scenarios as tools for self-reflection and growth.
- Can we really own our data?
- Will machines know us better than we know ourselves?
- Is the master/slave relationship between people and machines inverting?
- Will AI services anticipate our needs?
- What are the implications for the creative person of the future?
