The 84 Pianos – Global Pandemic Edition one-time-only performance will be live-streamed on YouTube and pianist locations will be geo-located on the Locus Sonus SoundMap project. We are inviting performers to livestream their audio only to Leah who will be doing a live mix of all the feeds – no video. However, we are also asking performers to pre-upload photos of their piano to our video-wizard Greg Harm who will then do a live mix of the photos, live video of the composer performing the work, and live mapping of the national soundscape.
The Performance will take place on June 12th at 6pm AEST.
All pianists will need to check in by 5.30pm.
Pre-performance all participants will need to provide the team with a photo of
1) themselves at their piano;
2) the view from their piano;
3) the inside of their piano.
This will be due by June 5th, 5pm. They can be upload here.
