Course description

The focal point of this course is exploring tools and techniques for streaming and discussing it in the context of performance art.

Performance art often involves these basic elements: time, space, body, and presence of the artist, the relation between the creator and the public. This time the relationship between the creator and the public takes place online - via streaming platforms.

The goal of this workshop is not only to discuss key concepts of performance art but also to recontextualize it for a digital environment and provide the tools to do so.

We will discuss the platforms, hardware and software (OBS, streamlabs, voicemeeter, capture cards, green screens etc.) needed for streaming and try to apply them for ideas created during the workshop.

We will have a PC setup to be a streaming station, which we can use for the ideas we come up with, however, if you can bring a smartphone or a laptop - that could be really useful equipment~
