Red Bull to turn tweets into beats for Melbourne event
Energy drink brand Red Bull is behind an event in Melbourne this weekend where tweets will be turned into music.
The Beat Suite Tweet Machine, created by Tequila Sydney, takes tweets and turns them into beats by using sentiment analysis. The mood of each tweet is translated into music by using keywords that describe emotions.
DJ Kano Hollamby
Sounds from the Beat Suite Tweet Machine will be combined with music from the Australian Youth Orchestra, and beat makers Galapagoose, Scratch 22, DJ Perplex, Amin Payne, Ladi6 and Ryan Richie from The Raah Project.
The event is to take place on Saturday 12th May at the Melbourne Recital Centre.
This sounds cool, might check it out, any chance you know what times on Saturday? also had to do a double take when scanning over Melbourne Recital Centre, initially thought it was missing the letter “i”.

That’s a very cool idea, but Tequila!
What happened to Kastner?
And they are both in the same building….. Tequila taking projects away from Kastner’s only piece of business must make for interesting elevator awkwardness.
Would you like a wedge of lime and salt with that?
