As the web3 world continues to move forward, Richie Hawtin has started to integrate live minting of special moments from his DJ performances as the start of a system envisioned by him and his team for some time concerning ownership and payment of the music played in DJ sets. His presentation at ADE revealed a new system they have been building on Unreal Engine which takes his performance movements and modulations into new Web3 territory.
Visually, a virtual world has been built in Unreal Engine by VanTa Digital and Marc Houle that includes a virtual version of the PLAYdifferently MODEL 1 mixer which is connected to a customised MIDI version of the MODEL 1 in the real world. All of Richie’s actions on the mixer during a performance are reflected in the metaverse MODEL 1 in real time via MIDI data that is sent into the virtual world system and connected to the sliders, knobs and LEDs.
