The University of Birmingham has launched the Joint Active Music Sessions (JAMS) platform, a virtual music collaboration tool that allows musicians to engage in virtual concerts, practice sessions, and enhances music teaching. The platform utilizes avatars created by individual musicians and shared with fellow performers to deliver an interactive virtual environment through VR headsets. Musicians can interact, learn, connect, perform, develop new music, and create virtual concerts on the platform. The avatars on JAMS capture unspoken moments in musical performance, allowing for real-time adaptability and dynamic responsiveness. The platform aims to bring the magic of playing music in person to the virtual world.
