Currently we focus on live collaboration in performance arts over the internet, using alternative open source technologies based on the protocol Open Sound Control. By sending data as code, sensor data or text over this light weight protocol we conduct performance sessions in remote parts of the world. The partners at each location can interpret the data and code in different ways to create audio, video or other performance elements. This creates a networked collaborative environment where individual performance agents or groups can develop their own interpretations while also communicating with each other with code and data. Our aim is to explore the impact of such techniques on performance arts and the potential for creation or development of new performance art practices, including but not limited to live coding and embodied performance.
