The four walls of your living room are not always the most conducive to creativity. Without a world to explore, finding the spark of an idea for your next project may seem impossible. Today’s at Apple’s catalog of guest artists has you covered if you need a creative break.
Apple Stores have been closed for more than a month. Today at Apple, the series of creative sessions that take place within each one, has been on hold even more. Flagship stores around the world would normally house musicians, photographers, artists, activists and more to share their creativity. Apple typically doesn’t record these sessions to be available online later, but session attendees and artist friends often document the performances and upload their own videos.
Below, I’ve curated a playlist of some of the best Today at Apple Per performances and Labs hosted by established and rising musicians that are available to watch online. From DJ rhythms to traditional Chinese instrumentation, there is something new that everyone can learn at home.
For even more creativity, check out Today at Apple at Home on creating house music in GarageBand. You can also visit the Inspiration Index, a place to discover recent artists at Today at Apple and get inspiration from their work.
