It will be a summer without live concerts and for this reason we are sad. A concert leaves a significant mark on the memory of each of us. We cannot completely give up. After all, by definition, concerts are a dangerous gathering and therefore it is obviously understandable that for safety reasons this year they are jumping. We do not know when exactly we can go back to live the experience of a concert as before, from Vasco Rossi to the Red Hot Chili Peppers everyone has postponed a year, to 2021.
A study by the Center for Performance Science confirms that music has an important impact on people's health. But not only. It seems that a concert reduces stress and increases positive feelings. Twenty minutes of live increase our well-being by 21%, the sense of self-esteem by 25%, the sense of intimacy and understanding with others by 25% and even mental stimulation would increase by 75%. Another study (from Goldsmiths University in London) reports that attending a live show at least every two weeks would be a cure-all for psychophysical well-being capable of "giving" almost a decade more. In practice, concerts extend life.
A group of young designers took part in the Covidesignjam (22-24 May 2020), 36 non-stop hours in which they confronted each other, designed and created concrete and applicable solutions for some of the major Italian designers, dealing with the difficult projection of future scenarios. Two recognized national excellences created the meeting: Nois3 and Digital Entity. Among the various ideas, that of the Concerto ^ 3 (Concerto al Cubo), a concert for anyone who wants to live the experience of live music, feeling safe and at the same time stimulated and satisfied. The idea of Concerto ^ 3 is to rethink space. No longer all close together, but all together in the same place. All together in small groups in a well-defined area where you can listen to music and enjoy concerts, distant, but united in sound.
Concert ^ 3 involves artists, institutions and organizers, acting as an intermediary and interlocutor, proposing and identifying the right space for the different types of concerts. Space rethought and reorganized to be shared, healthy and fun. This mode allows the artists to continue to perform a live concert, feeling the warmth of the audience and gives the audience the opportunity to live a participatory experience.
1. Through an app you can buy the ticket and receive the instructions for the event
2. Arriving at the concert venue, after the health check-in, each individual group is guided by the application to its own cell (a space at the open air delimited by signs on the ground)), through a luminous path generated in augmented reality.
3. During the concert, inside the cell, groups of friends also enjoy the concert with the projections. Motion sensors send feedback to the artist who "feels" the audience's reactions. There will be a paid bar service on the app and with delivery (the audience does not move). Also through the use of the app it will be possible to book access to the chemical toilets (and sanitized with each use).
4. The exit will be staggered, each group is waiting for its turn. The app will always report when you can exit. While waiting to go out, the public will be entertained with games and cell interactions. Even going out is an experience.
