The hand that Feeds

I was helping out with some Live Streaming from Birmingham at a brilliant outdoor performance from St Martins church in the Bullring. I was helping Caron Lyon and to be honest it was the easiest streaming job I had done in a long time, streaming to a Google hangout and then via periscope.

That’s all folks – with tenantspin mobile

It was a delight to be asked to help tenantspin with their last live stream and their first in such a long time – when they made arts engagement projects they broke the mould after this one – I think it was less art and more Guerilla TV – over the years they had some shows, some of which are available on their Live Stream and over the years I tried to get them involved in as many projects as I possible could.  I’m thinking here about when we got them over to the Arts Councils grand AGM where the participants met and interviewed the Council member of all the Arts Council’s across the country.  I did a bit of live reporting there also.

So last night after “The End of Transmission” part of the tentantspin event we just went for a wander around the gallery space with camera and laptop – working off WiFi and here is that short and not very interesting section. I still love the immediacy of it all.

I won’t say that it was an easy set up for this as we had to try 5 different cameras linked via Firewire to a Mac – they didn’t work so when we pulled out my old windows laptop and it worked first time which I made me laugh.
Do watch the last show in case you missed it, so good to see so many familiar faces and so sad that John McGuirk wasn’t there to see the end.  RIP John.
