Today's increasing availability of free music software and musical content. Digitópia, a platform for collaborative music creation recently started at Casa da Música, Porto's main concert venue, addresses how these trends can affect generalized music creation and music software design, promote social inclusion, and lead to the emergence of multicultural communities of music makers/lovers. In this paper, we report on the musical activities conducted in the first months of existence of Digitópia, and highlight some developments for the future.
