As a final result, the proposal conveys the identity of the brand, involves the users, promotes its services, and adapts correctly to the environment of electronic music and the environment of music festivals.
Questo lavoro consiste nella progettazione di un booth da posizionare nei festival di musica elettronica per l'incubatore di DJ miX.mi. MiX.mi è uno spazio collaborativo, situato a Milano, che mira a supportare i DJ emergenti ad affermarsi nel mondo della musica. È uno spazio di interazione dedicato agli attori del business della musica elettronica, il che lo rende un terreno veramente fertile per lo sviluppo professionale e l'accelerazione dei suoi membri. L'obiettivo principale di questo booth è la diffusione della proposta dell'incubatore e dei talenti emergenti che ospita, attraverso un'esperienza immersiva. Lo sviluppo del progetto di tesi si basa sull'esplorazione degli spazi esperienziali temporanei, con particolare focus sul campo della musica, quali strumento di branding e promozione. A questa esplorazione è seguita l'analisi di casi studio di ispirazione per il progetto. Sulla base di queste fasi preliminari, è stata sviluppata la proposta progettuale, illustrata nella tesi. miX.mi booth si compone di tre spazi principali che offrono tre esperienze alternative rivolte a 3 diverse tipologie di utenti: un'area lounge, collegata a un infopoint, in cui l'utente è invitato a prendersi una pausa dal festival, stimolato nei sensi da effetti di luce e musica; 4 recording capsule, in cui l'utente può registrare una traccia e mettere in pratica ciò che i dj fanno ogni giorno; e infine un live stage che ospita le performance dal vivo dei DJ ospitati dall'incubatore, e di altri dj amatoriali. Come risultato finale, la proposta trasmette l'identità dell'incubatore in modo immersivo, coinvolgendo gli utenti, promuovendo i suoi servizi e adattandosi perfettamente all'ambiente della musica elettronica e dei festival musicali.

Abstract
This work consists on the design of a project for a booth to be located at electronic music festivals for the Dj incubator miX.mi. MiX.mi is a collaborative space, located in Milan, which aims to support emergent Djs to succeed in the music world. It is a space of interaction between most of the actors of the electronic music business, what makes it a truly fertile ground for the professional development and acceleration of its members. The main objective of this booth is the dissemination of the company's proposal and the emerging talents it hosts, through an immersive experience. The development of the thesis is based on an investigation on the role of 'ancillary' experiential spaces in the music field for branding and promotion. This stage is followed by an analysis of case studies that are relevant to the project and inspiring to its concept. Finally the design of the booth is carried out. It consists of three main spaces that provide three alternative experiences. These are: a lounge area connected to an infopoint where the user is stimulated in his/her senses by light effects and music; capsules where the user can record a track and get hands on with what djs do every day; and a live stage that hosts performances both from attendees and djs incubated at miX.mi, giving the possibility to visualize amateur work and spread the production of the incubator. As a final result, the proposal conveys the identity of the brand, involves the users, promotes its services, and adapts correctly to the environment of electronic music and the environment of music festivals.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
