Connecting two spaces in real time is more than just a technical discussion about bandwith and speed of transmission. It brings up numerous aspects of communication, symmetries, feedbacks etc. which influence the telematic performance format.
The videos in this chapter give an introduction to aestehtic aspects of telematics, conceptually as well as in concrete examples for the use of scenography, video and audio.
Introduction
5.1 Introduction
How to analyse the telematic space? What are its effects on auditive and visual awareness? And how do intercultural aspects shape telematic performances?
