Project lens

Finding musicians is
only half the problem.

A suitable collaborator also needs a compatible schedule, clear expectations and a workable place to play.

JAM connects discovering musicians, coordinating a real session and staying connected afterward. Concrete sessions anchor discovery, while shared planning makes time, space and participation explicit.

This is a concept-stage project. Personas, affinity themes, session data and proposed journeys are illustrative hypotheses. Completed participant testing and measured product outcomes are not claimed.

Case study in motion

From discovery
to playing together.

A visual walkthrough of the proposed experience and its midnight-blue, neon direction.

UX process

From musical intent
to a shared plan.

The process connects provisional needs, architecture, joining flows and wireframes. Select any board to inspect it at full size.

Affinity mapping

Affinity mapping

Synthetic notes from the brief are grouped into six provisional themes, connecting compatibility with coordination and comfort.

Information architecture

Information architecture

Discover, My jams, Community and Inbox give each intention a clear place. Spaces sit within session planning.

First-jam flow

First-jam flow

A request, an accepted place and confirmed attendance are separate states, with recovery paths when plans change.

Sketch exploration

Sketch exploration

Session-first, people-first and shared-planning compositions explore the hierarchy before visual styling.

Low-fidelity wireframes

Low-fidelity wireframes

Setup, discovery and profiles make musical intent and availability visible without an invented compatibility score.

User journey

User journey

Discovery, assessment, requesting, planning, playing and reconnecting form one proposed experience.

Design decisions

Make the next
commitment clear.

The concept separates interest, acceptance and attendance, and keeps spaces within the planning task.

Key design decisions

Key design decisions

Session-first discovery, deliberate confirmation and planning-led spaces are examined through alternatives and tradeoffs.

MVP priorities

MVP priorities

The proposed pilot focuses on getting a session organised and attended before extending the wider community features.

Final UI

Midnight blue.
Electric human energy.

Cobalt actions and selective cyan and pink accents bring the music imagery to life while practical session details stay clear.

Discover. Join. Play.

Discover. Join. Play.

Onboarding, discovery, session details and the shared workspace connect the central journey.

Availability and attendance

Availability and attendance

Participants vote on times; the host finalises the plan; attendance is confirmed separately.

Recording consent

Recording consent

An approved recording remains private until the uploader deliberately publishes it.

The system behind
the screens.

Explore the visual system, musician journeys, navigation, reusable components and final screens behind JAM in one browsable reference.

A connected journey

One drummer.
One coherent journey.

An illustrative scenario follows Kabir through the same session from discovery to a repeat invitation.

Discover and request

Discover and request

Kabir assesses the session, requests a place and sees the acceptance state.

Plan, play and reconnect

Plan, play and reconnect

Time coordination leads to a confirmed plan and a deliberate invitation to play again.

Reflection

What changed.
What needs evidence.

Visual feedback shaped the direction. Behavioural validation and operational planning remain next steps.

Feedback and validation

Feedback and validation

The colour revision is documented project feedback, separate from the proposed usability testing.

Role and scope

User-led product and visual direction is distinguished from AI-assisted artifact development.
