Here is my conversation with [Matthew Chaim](https://twitter.com/matthewchaim): [https://www.intothebytecode.xyz/songcamp/](https://www.intothebytecode.xyz/songcamp/)

[Matthew](https://twitter.com/matthewchaim) is building a laboratory experimenting at the edges of music and web3.

It's called [Songcamp](https://twitter.com/songcamp_), and right now they're running their third immersive experience. They're coming together with a group of musicians, visual designers, developers, and at the end of this process, will be releasing new music under the moniker of a single headless artist called Chaos.

I've been personally completely nerdsniped by Songcamp and think it’s one of the most beautiful corners of our web3 ecosystem.

I hope you enjoy!
