T.V. #4: Streaming.a.Permacomputational.Conundrum.2024... with Ola Bonati & Aymeric Mansoux

During this fourth Tactical Video broadcast we discussed the potentials and limitations of streaming as an opportunity to create digital infrastructures of solidarity. The urgency to make and maintain localized yet distributed, open yet trusted, community-led yet flexible, and accessible yet ecologically and socially sustainable alternative infrastructures for online gathering has only grown from the now seemingly distant pandemic times. Online video streaming, our medium of choice, is only behind AI when it comes to energy and computationally intensive technologies. This begs the question: can streaming become a sustainable practice, placing care for the environment, for hardware (from cables to cameras and servers), and each other before uncritical mass outreach and constant content production? How can streaming become a practice of solidarity that acknowledges its material, infrastructural conditions and limitations? An evening of earnest conversations on how we can start to stream otherwise bringing together the self-hosting and alternative design initiatives SysterServer and Permacomputing. Featuring presentations and chats with Ola Bonati, Aymeric Mansoux, vo ezn, ooooo.be, and Karl Moubarak the event was moderated by Erica Gargaglione and the T.V. Team. The night was opened with a zine launch by our StreamArt Network collaborator 3022 and completed with a therminoise performance by noiserr. This hybrid event was produced and published by THE VOID (Tommaso Campagna, Giulia Timis, Jordi Viader Guerrero) with the assistance of Maja Korczyńska, August Kaasa Sundgaard, Salome Berdzenishvili, and Carolina Valente Pinto.
