We’re a multidisciplinary group of experts around the University of Arts in Zurich.
Since 2013 we connect Artist on stages worldwide, enabling them to perform together in real time.
We created our own open source software, as well as a extensive documentation. To further share our knowledge, we created a free online course to learn about telematic performances.
