Internship - Music Curation

Part of the internship programme at TheCantineCo, London.

A bit about them:

“Emotional Intelligence Powered by Music, Science & Psychology

Feelings are personal and so is our response to music. Cantine Technology is built to integrate with the applications millions already turn to, providing new avenues for accessible physical and emotional wellbeing solutions, social impact and economic growth.

Cantine is an ethical intelligence technology that respects and enhances the value of human created music.”

The title of this internship was ‘music curator’. During my time there I…

• Participated in a music curation project that studies how music evokes emotion.  

• Worked to a brief to organise and aggregate music via emotion, curating a range of playlists that reflected specific moods and emotional qualities.

• These playlists were then to be used as data sets to train AI-models on the nuances of music & emotion.
