Seminars

Lillehammer 2016

In the Bridging the Gap workshop the main stage for the experiment is a multicamera studio at the Lillehammer University College. The participants from the University of Tampere will produce motion captured performance data and virtual sound design that will be transmitted to the main stage in real-time. Riksteatern from Stockholm will produce the virtual set design for the performance. The dramaturgy and directing is handled by the theatre makers that recently graduated from the Iceland Academy of the Arts. All material will be transmitted through a low-latency fibre connection.

After the demonstration, there will be an open panel discussion where the audience can learn more about the used technologies, the network´s background and the next steps concerning the development in the low-latency technology.

Main organizer: Lillehammer University College
