The Inside Story
We trailed 大象传媒 Research & Development's SOMA project for this pilot.
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.
You can get a more detail about it over at this .
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.
