Umurage Regenerate — Building a Living Memory of Africa's Creative Heritage

Platform preview

Two AI-powered features, shown with demo data

Behind the programme sits a digital platform. Two of its features are already prototyped: a creative DNA lineage engine and a 3D museum. Everything below runs on illustrative, fictional data — it is a teaser, not a live archive.

DEMO · FICTIONAL DATA

Feature 01

Creative DNA lineage

Every work carries traces of the works before it. The lineage engine measures those traces, records who contributed what, and makes derivative use payable and revocable. Select any node to inspect its lineage.

  • Automatic detection of melodic, harmonic and textual similarity between works.
  • A permanent, time-stamped record of consent, licence terms and contributors.
  • Royalty routing that sends a defined share back to the estate on every derivative.

Feature 02

The 3D museum

Once an estate is digitised and documented, its works can be walked through rather than merely listed. The museum turns the archive into rooms an audience can visit from anywhere — with a wall label for every object.

The First Guitar

The instrument on which the estate's earliest songs were written, shown beside the original handwritten notation.

  • Curated rooms built directly from the estate's documented archive.
  • Every object carries provenance, dating and rights status.
  • Accessible from a browser, on a phone, with no download.
