Wie letzte Woche bekanntgegeben, ist Will.i.am von den Black Eyed Peas jetzt Director of Creative Innovation bei Intel. Da Will.i.am und Intel ein gemeinsames Interesse an Innovationen rund um Lifestyle, Kunst und Musik haben, soll sich der siebenfacher Grammy-Gewinner bei seinem neuen Arbeitgeber v.a. um die Entwicklung neuer Technologien und Musik kümmern. Wer möchte, kann sich auch den 15-minütigen Ausschnitt der Pressekonferenz anschauen.
He’s best known for being a multi-platinum music artist, producer and front man for The Black Eyed Peas, but will.i.am is also an innovator, technology fan, entrepreneur and philanthropist. With today’s announcement at the Anaheim Convention Center, the seven-time Grammy winner has added another title to his multi-faceted resume: “director of creative innovation.”
As an extension of his insatiable fascination with technology, which plays a significant role in his professional and personal lives, will.i.am will engage in a multi-year, hands-on creative and technology collaboration with Intel Corporation. He already sports an Intel ID badge, which he proudly showed off at a news conference in Anaheim, where Intel is holding an internal sales and marketing conference.
“Nearly everything I do involves processors and computers, and when I see an Intel chip I think of all the creative minds involved that help to amplify my own creativity,” said will.i.am. “Teaming up with the scientists, researchers and computer programmers at Intel to collaborate and co-develop new ways to communicate, create, inform and entertain is going to be amazing.”
