Google Has Patented The “Hand Heart” Gesture What does this mean for the EDM Scene?

Google has patented specific hand gestures for users of Google Glass, including the “hand heart.” But how will this affect the rave scene, DJs and pop stars?

A recently discovered patent has revealed that Google has patented “hand gestures to signify what is important” for users wearing a “wearable computing device” —- otherwise known as Google Glass.

The most alarming part of this patent is that it includes making a “heart-shaped hand gesture” that Google Glass wearers would make to signify that they “like” something.

Here’s how you would use a hand heart while wearing Google Glass:

The patent also includes making a “lens frame” gesture with your hands to create a frame around an object, indicating to Google Glass that you want to take a picture of an object or person that you’ve “framed.”

However, modern convenience and technological advances aside, if Google does implement these patented gestures, what does it mean for the rest of us? And, more specifically, what does it mean for DJ’s?!

 

The edm scene was introduced to google glasses during Nicky Romero’s set at TomorrowWorld.

DIMITRI VEGAS & LIKE MIKE vs DVBBS & BORGEOUS – ‘STAMPEDE’

There is absolutely no let up in the tempo coming from Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike. After a sensational five Beatport #1s this year alone, the Belgian superstars get ready to let rip with their latest hit single ‘Stampede’. As ferocious and as unrelenting as the name implies, the track is a collaboration of mammoth proportions with Canadian producers DVBBS & Borgeous, currently conquering the charts with ‘Tsunami’.

Kicking off with a sumptuous run of chords and arpeggios that deliver shivers and goosebumps in abundance, it’s not long before the track erupts with the high octance bassline force these artists are world renowned for. Stomping all across the bass and treble lines, ‘Stampede’ treads the line between ethereal and downright filthy with perfect balance.

Originally heard as part of the 2013 Tomorrowland After Movie, fans have already been desperately calling on the pair for an official release date, now confirmed as November 18th2013. With the announcement of Spinnin’ Records as the official label partner and now this exclusive Soundcloud teaser to whet the appetites even further, get dance floors everywhere ready because the ‘Stampede’ is only weeks away.

Jay Z’s shout-out to EDM, Skrillex gives director Ron Howard DJ lessons ‘Made In America’ documentary (VIDEO)

Jay Z’s second annual Made In America festival held in Philadelphia took place Labor Day Weekend which showcasd many amazing artist and genres. Made In America’ documentary released on Showtime shows the festival’s first edition in 2012 features headliners from Run DMC to Skrillex.

Impressed by the music of Skrillex, Jay Z believes that EDM is the music of the future

In this documentary Ron Howard also goes behind the scenes with Skrillex and even gets some pointers on how to DJ. (fast foward to – 51:50)

Heres What Jay Z had to say:

“EDM, people are dismissing as a fad sort of like they did hip-hop, that I think is going to be a bit more sticky. I think it’s good music of the next generation, it’s their soundtrack, it’s their music they’re claiming as they own. They’ll buy hip hop and they’ll buy other music but they’re like “this music is ours.” Kid’s don’t want to listen to their dad’s music, they want to be on the cutting edge of something new, and I think this is something they can claim.”

TMZ says Baller admits Bieber and Woods did have an arguement over the music however states things were resolved before anything got physical.

Michael Woods Twitter says otherwise:
