hi antonio, it depends what you mean by networked video performance; there are many things going on in the field of networked performance & lots of work that employs live video.
visitors studio (http://www.visitorsstudio.org/) is one platform that enables real-time collaborative mixing of digital media including video, & this can be done also to a certain extent in UpStage (http://www.upstage.org.nz) altho visitors studio offers more possibilities in terms of video mixing. in both of these platforms there are limits to the size of what can be uploaded - obviously if people are mixing & watching in real-time, there will be bandwidth issues. there is also wj-s (http://www.wj-s.org/) but as far as i'm aware this is not an online platform - it uses the internet to sample media from the web, but it's all compiled/manipulated & presented in a single physical location (i might be wrong on that, i've never actually managed to see a performance). vj theory (http://www.vjtheory.net/) might be of interest to you, altho i don't know how much they get into networked practices. also the live performers meeting (http://www.liveperformersmeeting.net/), which is mostly offline real-time VJ & related performance, but when i was there last year there were a small number of us working online & i think it's an area that people in that network are starting to move into. that's just off the top of my head - there is other stuff out there ... :) h : ) On 27/02/12 12:52 PM, Antonio Roberts wrote: > Is there such a thing as networked video performance?
