European music collaboration

You don't have to be a musician to join?

Perhaps you don't have to be a musician to join, you could create with words or film or something that hasn't been re-purposed yet? I wonder if joining 'with approval' is a good idea - my thoughts were (and are still) that a project group would have a consensual view on matters like that; as that the great football manager, Jose Mourinho, always say's 'my team is a group of people working together, nothing else is going on... '

If anyone would like to put forward an idea for a logo for this project it would be great...

I don't mean to be exclusive about the project - it could turn out to be a collaboration between Europe and China or similiar, I just had to write something to give the project form.

The First Time...

I've just found Amazee and it seems a pretty good jumping off point for an idea I've had for sometime. Some background first - I'm an ex-professional musician (I stopped when I was 35 to count money) who has recently started playing again (drums & percussion). I am also a long time Europeanist, having lived and played all over Europe in the late 1960's and 70's. My idea, and it's quite loose still, is for each European nation state (and perceived nation states) to collaborate and record and perform/film a piece of music - my initial thoughts are for perhaps 4/6 people, who would generate the musical idea/format/project direction and then using Amazee and other web technologies bring the project to fruition. I don't anticipate the musicians meeting, musically, until performance rehearsals as it seems fun to do the whole project on the web and illustrate that you can deliver human interaction using the 'cloud'. So in the first instance I would like to open a dialogue with some people who are interested in helping me (I don't anticipate it being 'my' project) develop the idea, musical direction and project corner/milestones. This is not a classical music project...
