Reborn in 50 minutes
StreetMusicMap Instagram got hacked, deleted and restored in less than one hour this Tuesday. That's what i called a 'rollercoaster of emotions', just before our third milestone at the Tow-Knight Program. This short mayhem gave me lifetime lessons about security, no doubt. Four years of research on the spot. And now…WE'RE BACK.
April ends with a Webby Award Nomination for StreetMusicMap (Social — Music Category, sharing the votes with Rolling Stone Magazine Instagram, Beck, producer Mark Ronson and Album+Art Instagram). With 13,000 entries from all 50 U.S. states and over 70 countries, the 21st Annual Webby Awards was the biggest ever. As a Nominee this year, StreetMusicMap was chosen by the International Academy of Digital Arts & Sciences as the top 5 in its category, in the world; and in the top 9% of all work entered.
The last 24 days (!) at CUNY will be focused on increasing the network, producing podcast episodes and promoting an outdoor event in NYC curated by StreetMusicMap.
