The Inside Story
Jazz Line Up is live at the Fringe 2017 and here's a bit about what we're up to.
Alongside 大象传媒 Research and Development we're working with a bunch of broadcasters, bands and performers to test out a new way of broacasting live content over the internet.
The technology behind this project is called SOMA, which stands for Single Operator Mixing Application. This may sound complicated, and if we’re honest, the technology is. But in essence SOMA is a vision mixer like you would see in a TV shows gallery, but within an internet browser.

The reason why we’re featuring SOMA on Taster is to continue testing the performance of the technology with live broadcasts. 大象传媒 Research and Development have been using SOMA at the Edinburgh Festival for the past few years, but the trails have not been publically available. This year we all felt it was ready to broadcast live from the festival to people at home.
We’re doing 7 broadcasts in total that will all be available 大象传媒 Taster:
Janice Forsyth: Wednesday 9th August, 10am
Late Junction: Wednesday 9th August, 11am
Poetry Slam: Sunday 13th August, 9:30pm
