With isolation and remote work looming last week, we recorded a podcast conversation about communication and collaboration. Irregular host Tristra Newyear Yeager (and rock paper scissors writer / strategist) tells Eleanor Rust, rps marketing director, about essential lessons she’s learned from collaborating with people scattered around the globe, and how to maximize listening while minimizing distraction. How could music creation change as tech solutions for synchronous collaboration develop? What might the future of music creation and collaboration share with our past? Peek into rabbit holes ranging from traditional blind minstrels in Ukraine to Soundwhale to Breughel paintings. The Music Tectonics podcast goes beneath the surface of the music industry to explore how technology is changing the way business gets done.
