We're looking for a small number of specific people.
Someone who has spent years in real-time audio and feels like the most interesting problems haven't been built yet. Who has opinions about what music actually sounds like on the other side of an algorithm.
Someone who has been working on audio analysis and suspects the applications being built with it aren't the most interesting ones possible.
Someone who has built something real in the browser that processes audio. Who cares about what an interface communicates at the gesture level, not just whether the buttons work.
Someone who believes restraint is a design decision. Who has come from something with a strong physical design heritage and has taste specific enough to explain.
Someone who is already in the rooms we need to be in. A working DJ, promoter, or curator who has been frustrated by existing tools long enough that they'll feel what we're building the first time they use it.
If you read one of these and thought — that's me — we'd like to hear from you. Tell us what you'd build first.
