My intent was to use the term hackathon as more of an analogy than description, as hackathons to me include:
- Working on a team to build a tech solution
- Finite time restrictions
- Limited resources
- "demo day" at the end
all of which are present in this project in the context of album creation
Though I do agree with the sentiment of trying to be deliberate & accurate with word choice when describing things
Sorry to be that guy, I just hate seeing jargon migrate. The proper term is simply “working on stuff”, or “collaborating” if you prefer :).
Or Jamming, whatever, what have you. A lot of albums in various genres have gotten made that way over the years.
