About this Event
SOCIAL LAB PORTA GENOVA presents
MUSIC OUTSIDER
Milano Music Week 2026
19:00 - 20:30 TALK
Beyond Fan Culture: Artists, Fans & The Future of Community
Join us to explore how the relationship between artists and their communities has evolved. From the Punk and Disco movements of the 1970s, when music brought people together through shared spaces, underground scenes, and face-to-face connections, to today's digital landscape, where social platforms are reshaping the way artists and audiences interact.
How has the relationship between artists and communities changed from the independent music scenes of the 1970s to the digital age? What does it mean to be part of a music community today, and how can artists build meaningful connections with their audiences beyond the traditional fan culture?
From underground scenes to online communities, from shared spaces to digital connections - exploring what brings us together through music.
