Music:Not Impossible

?We’ve got very EXCITING news to share!! ?? ?? Fast Company has named Not Impossible Labs a winner of the Next Big Things in Tech for Music:Not Impossible! We are so honored to be recognized for our work in creating a way for the Deaf and hard-of-hearing community to experience music and sound in a truly inclusive way. Throughout this journey, we realized we created something truly special. We didn’t just revolutionize the way Deaf people experience music, we’ve created a transcendent sound experience for everyone – regardless of their hearing abilities – with an innovation that transforms the skin into another “eardrum.” Our multi-sensory approach to music is now changing how we can experience sound in the future in a more immersive way – whether that’s at a concert, watching a film, attending a sporting event, etc.? Thank you to Fast Company and the fast company team for including our invention on the list alongside these other game-changing innovations and companies. And big shoutout to the M:NI team (Mick Ebeling, Daniel Belquer, LLB MFA, Paddy Hanlon, David Putrino) and our incredible collaborators over the years, thank you for being on this wild ride with us!?#FCTechAwards https://lnkd.in/e_F6mVRk

In honor of International Day of the Girl, we want to highlight the the awesome work of the "Darth Rappers" team—four young girls passionate about making a difference. Last year, during their FIRST Lego League project, they had a conversation with our Chief Vibrational Officer, Daniel Belquer, LLB MFA, whose work with Music: Not Impossible inspired them to think differently about accessibility in the arts. Inspired by our mission to make music accessible to the Deaf community, the girls applied that same thinking to their own passion—dance. Their project, Dance: Not Impossible, aims to make dance accessible to the blind using AI, robotics, and haptic technology. By creating a multisensory system that provides audio, tactile, and haptic feedback, they are breaking barriers in the world of dance. Their innovation led them to win the prestigious first-place Motivate Award at the FIRST World Festival. We’re thrilled to see how the work we do at Not Impossible Labs has inspired these young innovators to push boundaries and create meaningful change in the world of dance. Their commitment to inclusion and creativity embodies the spirit of making the impossible, NOT impossible. Happy #InternationalDayoftheGirl! Let’s keep supporting and empowering young minds to dream big and create innovations for a better future. #STEM #GirlsInTech #InnovationForGood

When we invented Music:Not Impossible (M:NI) our goal was to introduce a new way to experience music. We wanted to develop a NEW form of music creation and expression that transcended beyond just hearing the music. We wanted to create music equality for all. Well, what we’ve created has been revolutionary. When anyone puts on a M:NI suit – whether they can or can’t hear – the reaction is always the same: their minds are completely blown away! Music:Not Impossible is on the brink of transforming the music industry and the future of how EVERYONE can experience music and live events forever. It’s an honor to be spotlighted during the Macy's 4th of July Fireworks Show, celebrating Daniel Belquer, our Chief Vibrational Officer, and Mick Ebeling, founder & CEO of Not Impossible Labs, as American innovators. Thank you NBCUniversal for celebrating our work and how we’re changing the world through technology and story. Video Description: This video features footage of audience members experiencing the Music:Not Impossible suit at previous events, interspersed with interview footage of Mick Ebeling and Daniel Belquer, Co-Founders of Music: Not Impossible, sharing more about the product and experiences.

Last month we joined danceABLE and C89.5 FM to celebrate accessibility and haptics on Yuri's Day at the The Museum of Flight. Music: Not Impossible's haptic technology and Anabel Englund led the crowd in an unforgettable dance party made for everyone - of all ages, hearing, deaf, or hard of hearing - to feel and enjoy. Here are a few photos from the event, taken by Brandon Hansen.

We are proud to be honored with the Silver Edison Award. This award carries a special value due to the memory of this towering figure for human creativity and invention: Thomas Alva Edison. We’d like to thank the Edison Awards foundation and also the Deaf community for all the feedback and support.
