Show HN: Celody – A Music Network State

Re:Show HN: Celody – A Music Network State by CharlesW on Tuesday August 02, 2022 @02:25PM (#32322462)

"What is Celody? Celody is a network state powered by a new form of music. By listening to infinite music streams, you generate tokens that are used inside a musical universe of digital people. In short, Celody is a world born from music."

These words don't mean anything. There may be an interesting project in here, but it's impossible to say for sure. If the creators are reading, you really need to figure out what's interesting about this to your target audience.

I think this talk explains it concisely: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zpNgsU9o4ik

This perfectly encapsulates the problem.

bingo...

>>> Celody generates tokens using a "proof of music" mechanism. If you listen to Celody music for a random time period, tokens will likely be generated. With this token, you can vote for laws, elect politicians, change personalities, swap images, mate people, chat, stake, buy stuff and more. The world is constantly expanding.

You can do everything xD

Ah, so it's the attention economy, implemented in BlOcKcHaIn, folded in on itself until there is only a contrived utility that has zero basis outside of the narrow context it creates for itself.

Hmm I got lost at "proof of". I wonder if this is validate of tweet by PG about "old people dont like new things because they consider them undignified" (or something similar). Seriously I dont actually get this. I do work (listen to music) to earn (coins) so I can do things? Isnt that what my day job is supposed to be?

The only limit, is yourself.

Sounds like you get eXperience Points for listening to music and that gives you privileges. Interesting, but bound to be dominated by those with serious time on their hands.

You can obviously do soooo much with it, that my mind boggles. As an example of how much more you can do versus some other things, I can only contribute a very boring example (involving no musical universe at all) via "Linux on the Web":

    1) Goto http://lotw.site/shell
    2) At the prompt, enter : import av && beep
    3) Once your head starts pounding, hit Ctrl+c

Now wasn't that boring! :)
