the time has come for the fourth lines community stream.
this one will take place for as much of new years eve as possible on thursday, december 31st to friday, january 1st.
this stream will be organized by a collective including @tyleretters, @infinitedigits, @anxietymachine and @license. our goal is to provide a means to play out 2020 and enter into 2021. use music to express this transition in whatever way you find meaning. be it releasing grief, or looking to renewal, or providing memorial.
the way it works, as in past streams, is that each performer will be streamed on the lines community Twitch at their designated time (tbd). the community twitch uses a feature called “hosting” to redirect the stream to the performer’s channel. this year, to accommodate more timezones, we will allow pre-recorded submissions. each set can be up to 20 minutes (don’t hesitate to sign up if to share something shorter, we will accommodate you).
everyone interested in participating should sign up here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1NzpRfPNz5slYFfgFj9JM_eRiuV66kbob5kr0P5wJJMM/edit?usp=sharing
use that form to indicate whether you will play live, or precord, and whether you would like to play at your midnight (musical countdown perhaps?), and your preferred time span to get a time slot. when we get an idea of the timezones involved / prerecorded sets, we will assign time slots to best accommodate your preferred time span. there is no limit on number of participants.
if you are prerecording, you can either play your video live (see below), or send it directly to via discord by december 30th.
if you are playing live you will need the following:
- a Twitch account to stream from
- follow these instructions to setup OBS to stream to Twitch
- do some kind of test stream to make sure it works
- join the discord server: https://discord.com/invite/sQUuebv
of course, if you have any questions please don’t hesitate to reach out here or on the discord.
