Hi h4ckerz,

This is a clumsy code I've written tonight while thinking on that dilemma, checking if an artist/band is alive/active or not. So that they are not excluded, and their memory will be there, via demandable tributes.

Hope that's a good thing. On the other hand, it should not really go and crawl those, as a personal ethical point of view. It's just weird. Maybe would run 1-2 times a year and that's all.

Since before the new year, working on a project with Future, Made collective (link below).

For an initial set of apps we are designing and trying to build in open participation; we need to know if an artist or band is still alive or active in their careers for future events that are demandable and collectively observable by the audiences.

It is about the tribute-ability of artists/bands in the scope of co-imagining and planning future art events with demand-sides' augmentation.

So, projects are not creating yet another conventional search, or announcement platforms/bases that are almost in the form of "market-places". The platform we imagine, but somewhere that audiences do not wait for an art event to be announced. They can demand it with their preferences.

Especially this existing time ahead (pandemic, events on hold etc) it is a good idea for artists to "collect" demands for their future, on-site events.

There is just this thing. No one really knows what anyone would afford or willing to pay for the online experiences.

This is a rough yet optimistic comparison with similar platforms: https://imgur.com/a/HxyQXZB

We like keeping things transparent.
