SwarmTribes Research

SwarmTribes® is the application of Swarmteams techniques to building the fanbase of music artists and bands.

As part of its Connect Programme, NESTA has commissioned a pilot project to test the SwarmTribes model with 36 musicians or bands and their fans during 2008. The Connect programme aims to fertilise innovation by encouraging collaborations that cross organisational, disciplinary and place/community barriers.

This site is for a small research project, investigating and disseminating lessons from the SwarmTribes pilot. It is being conducted by DJ Alchemi Ltd (supported by Nancy Baym and Ryan Milner of Kansas University, and Eleanor Ford), and is also supported by NESTA. 

For more background see the Project Management Documents.
