Blogswara is an online initiative by Indian artists, aimed at creating music collaboratively over the net. People with different talents (lyrics, singing, recording, etc.) come together in a virtual setting to create albums and compositions in hindi, tamil and malayalam. Listeners can download the music for freeGreen Award Icon.

Since I haven’t listened to the albums yet, I don’t feel qualified to comment on the music. But the sheer ingenuity of the concept forced me to write about it. I think Blogswara is an excellent (albeit tad unusual) example of how a population can internalize technology as an infrastructure for it’s inherent talent. Passionate artists on Blogswara have creates three albums since May 2006, all working in synergy from different parts of the world.

In future, look out for such primordial soup of passion, collaboration and technology to spawn the next generation of artists and albums.
