Livestreaming Coping with COVID: Livestreaming for Artists
An online workshop with Creative Capital to help artists better understand how to livestream their work to virtual audiences
Creative Capital presents Coping with COVID: Livestreaming for Artists livestreaming on the global, commons-based, peer-produced HowlRound TV network at howlround.tv on Tuesday 31 March 2020 at 1 p.m. PDT (San Francisco, UTC-7) / 3 p.m. CDT (Chicago, UTC-5) / 4 p.m. EDT (New York, UTC-4) / 9 p.m. BST (London, UTC+1).
This workshop is presented by Creative Capital and produced for the HowlRound platform.
In this uncertain time, many artists are left with no outlet for their creative practice. The liveness of theater/performance, in person exhibitions, and screenings could never be replaced. However, there is a whole world within the platform of livestreaming that can provide an alternate frame of experience that carries with it (especially now) a great amount of community, freedom, vulnerability, solidarity, and possibility. Whether it’s translating a previous work onto a livestream platform, creating new content within this digital venue, or using it as a way to process or workshop a feeling, place or idea, this panel will asses how livestreaming can serve as a powerful tool for artists that are currently looking for ways to maintain their artistic practice and livelihood.
Organized by Yara Travieso and Brighid Greene of La Medea— a Creative Capital project that, as an immersive musical and simulcast film, re-imagines Euripides’ myth into a Latin-disco-pop-feminist variety show— the panel will focus on livestreaming for artists and art institutions from creative, curatorial, and technical perspectives. We will specifically frame the conversation around the personal sustainability, creative possibility, and artistic agency that can take place right now without the typical pressures associated with product and presentation. This is an opportunity to reset the tone of art making, providing us with a low stakes creative freedom and a chance to restructure art hierarchies that could last beyond the times of quarantine.
