hi all, just wanted to announce a live performance.

In this project we use primarily linux and GNU GPL software (Pure Data, GEM, SuperCollider, Icecast, Ogg/Theora video) and hardware (SenseStage).

Appologies for any cross posting.

Transmittance #2 - telepresence performance

@ http://transmittance.si & @ Tobacco 001 Cultural Centre, Ljubljana // 13. december 2011 @ 20:00 CET //

Online audience can watch and interact with the performance live using a recent version of popular browser like Firefox or Chrome. No other software is needed.

Transmittance explores collaboration which is local, global, networked and broadcasted. It involves an artistic group of performers, visual artists, musicians and computer programmers to research performative possibilities of streaming, broadcasting and telepresence forging new types of performance and audience. With focus on critical and socially-aware artistic languages this work is based on asking questions about body, self and society - opening non-dualistic perspectives.

The project tries to rethink the notions of spectatorship and spectacle, ways of watching and seeing and the audience as spectators from the outside. In framework of free telepresence technologies it is a quest to open new spaces of visibility for performance and new media art and while critically deconstruct also actively bypass power structures that have a hold on physical spaces of artistic representation. Emphasis is made on creative use of free and open source software and its impact on artistic process and collaboration.

The project develops a specific method of improvised performance which allows compositional freedom beside specific prepared scenes at the same time and in the process collide different specifics of various artistic media (performance art, expanded cinema, sound art, new media realities).

Transmittance is a project proposed by Maja Delak & Luka Prinčič.
