Creating music as cultural consumption can be an ethical and a sustainable income stream for contemporay artists.
LivingMusic aims to celebrate and showcase music as a creative art, enable musicians to collaborate in creative processes with other artists in all sectors of the creative industries, and support musicians to negotiate the business side of music, inculding developing innovative and entrepreneurial creative enterprises. We also look to inform musicians to deal the personal impacts of doing business. History has shown avoiding exploitative individuals and organisations within the creative arts industry is often a failed goal for artists, particularly musicians.
12 key sectors of the creative industries:
Visual Arts and Crafts
Screen, Radio and Broadcasting
Advertising
Museums
Architecture
Performing Arts
Fashion
Digital Design
Literature and Print Media
Festivals
Libraries and Archives
Music Composition and Publishing.
"Traditional artisan skills are now required to be complemented by practical business skills. Research consistently shows that most arts practitioners are sole operators or contractors who support themselves, in whole or in part, by performing their craft or skill. Basic business skills, including finance, marketing, planning, project management, entrepreneurship, content protection and management, contract negotiation and customer relations are now essential for individuals in these roles."
Creatively driven problem solving, critical thinking and communication skills are in high demand across Australia and the globe.
Creative Arts and Culture training aims to develop skills such as communication, creativity, and critical thinking, to positively impact creative arts and wider culture. Current study to inform development of this website is focused to investigate the creative practices and the rich diversity of arts and culture of Northern & Central Australia and the interconnected Indo Pacific as a student at CDU's Academy of the Arts that aims to foster strong local and regional links in the arts community and industry.
LivingMusic aims to celebrate and showcase music as a creative art and support musicians to negotiate the business side of music. This objective is a greater challenge for a speaker of a language other than English wanting to showcase their music in the English-speaking world. Current study to inform development of this website is focused on Teaching English as second language (ESL). Within context, ESL training on this website can help musicians with ESL to negotiate the business side of music.
Idea is services offered by LivingMusic will be to a wide range of socio-economic individuals and groups. Age demographic in Australia maybe focused on mid 40s.^ Services by LivingMusic are intended to be focused on the creators of contemporary music. Customers can be a cross section of cultures and ethnic groups who are local and international. Customers are likely to have a 'day job' supporting their music as a creative art.
