Backplane To Hold Music Hackathon At SXSW, With Top Industry Managers As Judges

A few weeks ago we wrote about Backplane???a platform for creating interactive, highly visual communities ? that counts Lady Gaga as one of its backers, along with plenty of the Valley's most well-known investors. Now the company is harnessing its star power to hold a unique (and potentially awesome) event at SXSW: the SXSW Managers Hack ??a hackathon that will be judged by some of the most accomplished managers in the music industry, including: Scooter Braun, best known for facilitating Justin Bieber's rise to fame; Jay Brown, President of Jay-Z's Roc Nation; and Troy Carter, manager of Lady Gaga (Carter is also one of Backplane's cofounders).
