Even if this is only a rough rendering it is very helpful, thank you!
I’ll digest and then perhaps have more questions.

Minor correction. No, a ‘persona’ belongs to one and only one user = account, typically an email address.
The intention was indeed that listeners, labels and artists could have multiple personas, but at the moment I think we are planning for listeners to have one persona, multiple personas being reserved for artists and labels. That could be changed.
Thanks for checking my work, Nick!
Interesting, so a persona couldn’t be managed by multiple accounts?
Let’s say I am an independent artist on resonate and then I join a label. I have a persona for my music. I decide to give the persona to the label to manage. I wouldn’t retain any control over the persona? I may be misunderstanding.
It seems much better if this was more like a delegation of control which could be revoked at will by the delegator, like assigning someone as a proxy on your behalf. It would be odd to hand over complete control because I assume the artist would lose the ability to check their earnings and stats, not having access to the persona.
A delegating relation was envisaged. I’m not sure if it was implemented in the current version? From the user and membership API spec, see this comment:
Yes: There is a ‘delegate’ relationship that may be set by the originating owner of a profile. Either a label delegating control to the artist, or vice versa.
However, bear in mind It is important that a public release, legally issued under contract to a label should not be suddenly represented as an independent release, now that the artist is independent: two profiles may still be required, one under the label, and another as the independent artist. It should also be possible for the artist to create a separate profile that is the parent of both those profiles, one being the historic one under the label, and the current one. Of course the artist may have current and previous ‘personas’ under many labels, not just one.
If the ‘label’ relationship is just a looser ‘marketing agent’ setup, with no specific rights relationship to record, it may be perfectly OK for the ‘marketing’ agent to hand over the profile to the artist. It’s always the original owner that has to initiate the setting up of a delegate or the transfer of control, of course.
We have a very flexible profile system and even without a secure (and potentially complex) persona handover (think about transferring ownership of bank accounts as an analogy) there are workaround ways to represent the situation with only a little bit of duplication of profile information.
@community Thanks all for coming
No worries @brndnkng, we can continue next week
This is version 1 of the competition. Each cycle of the competition lasts for a calendar month.
We can nominate any playlist, whether created by a human or machine. The playlist has to be two items or more.
We create a new topic each cycle, people nominate playlists by replying to the topic with an embed, or link of the playlist. This nomination period lasts for 2 weeks.
Nomination period ends, and poll is created in the OP of the competition topic with links all nominations in posts. Voting lasts for 2 weeks.
If the desired technical characteristics of a future ‘selector account’ are similar to those of the artist role / account and permissions - ie the ability to create multiple personas, with their own playlists and rich story / pictorial content, it’s straightforward from a back-end perspective - we just add another ‘usergroup type’ and they share the artist-level Role permissions. As you say, what the player UI / forum does with it is a different matter.
The key thing is to make sure that the player is associating playlists, releases, profile pictures and uploaded tracks with a ‘profile’ (persona, usergroup) and not directly with a user. Hope that is true!
Rather than using playlisting as the medium to feature the community in “Discover”, we’re proposing to include a curated list of tagged public posts from the #music category in the discover page of the player. This is in addition to all existing content on the discover page (nothing will be removed)

There was a proposal to including a playing now stream (combined stream based on current listens) in the discover section of the player:
Features we may want for playlisting. These will be discussed further as part of a a future epic:
@community Thanks for a good meeting all!
Here’s what we discussed

peace good people @community
just giving word that i won’t be making our call tonight. though this is the case, i was able to have further thought on the Mapping Diversity and Inclusion within Resonate and responded to that thread which you can see here
hope the meeting goes well and i will be on the look out for notes as they make it here to the forum space
much appreciation
@community Thanks all

We continued to discuss the levels of engagement
@Hakanto shared some thoughts on how levels of engagement fit in with money and responsibility across the cooperative.
We’d like to fit artists into how we’re thinking about our levels of engagement. The first step in that is holding a regular artists forum, perhaps on a monthly basis, where artists can:
@brndnkng We were thinking you’d be the right person to facilitate this new forum, with the help of one or two of our more engaged artists, such as @LLK or @KallieMarie. What do you think?
We’d need to reach out to Resonate artists directly, as many don’t participate in the forum currently. @Hakanto is preparing our artist member details in preparation for our upcoming AGM, so you might want to discuss with him about how to get a mailing list of resonate artists.
At this stage the artists forum would be a listening and discussion session with a broad scope. We want to find a realistic way for artists to be more engaged and inspired by Resonate and our plans
We’re going to trial a few UX changes on the forum to start to implement the levels of engagement, starting with:
@brndnkng shared some good resources on social constructions of race. We’ll be discussing these and the diversity and inclusion survey in our next meeting
Happy to help. Keep me posted or message me directly @Angus if there’s a need for anything that I should have eyes on, help with as an artist.
