Recommend. Be recommended. The mathematics of the Matrix pulls creators together like gravity. Creating global pathways, global ubiquity, global unity. In a small world great things are possible.

Bio:
After years as a band manager, promoter, and restaurateur, Nic took the helm at The Roxy in 1998.
An entrepreneur and community builder, Nic was drawn to the cutting edge concepts he found in the burgeoning field of social media. In 2007 he launched a blog that went on to win VH-1's Award for Best Music Venue Website.
Always an early adapter, Nic built The Roxy into the #1 Music Venue on Twitter, Instagram, Flickr and Facebook. As his social media program grew, he began to see the importance of being a part of the larger community of the Sunset Strip and the City of West Hollywood. Nic was a co-founder of the Sunset Strip Music Festival, which draws over 30K music fans to the city every August and celebrates the Strip's legacy as it highlights some of music's newest talent.
Vegan Beer and Food Festival is another event that Nic help create and continues to produce.
Featured in Entrepreneur, on ABC's 20/20, in the New York Times, Mashable, TechCrunch, Los Angeles Times, Fast Company, and LABJ, Nic is reinventing his club, his street and eventually his city using the fundamentals of social media.
In 2013, Nic joined Goldenvoice curating the Food and Beverage experience for their festivals, including Coachella Music and Arts Festival.

I'm Sparrow. I built this matrix so that every creator on the planet would be conceivably findable and accessible from all others, beginning with musicians in Bahia, Brazil. The matrix combines recommendation by both artificial and human intelligence (human preferred) and the small-world phenomenon (responsible for the fact that most humans are within 6 steps of most others) in a simple but powerful manner which has never been used before.
