has anyone else had a look at this?
i'm a bit stunned that they are describing what sounds like webcasting
slightly augmented by social media as "an entirely new mode of
presentation" ... on their web site, they even claim it as " the first
artistic programme created purely for live web broadcast."
where have they been for the last 15+ years i wonder???

BMW Tate Live Performance Room is a pioneering programme of live
performances created exclusively for online broadcast, simultaneously
reaching international audiences across world time zones.
For the second performance in the BMW Tate Live Performance Room,
Argentinean born artist Pablo Bronstein will premiere, /Constantinople
Kaleidoscope/, an entirely new work made especially for the BMW Tate
Live Performance Room. Involving a group of dancers, Bronstein will
create a baroque trompe l'oeil stage set that exaggerates the
perspective of the room with mirrored columns. Bronstein uses
architectural design and drawing to engage with the grandiose and
imperial past of the built environment and this preoccupation with form
frequently extends into his live work.
Audiences, who will only be able to view the performances on the
internet, are invited to enter the online Performance Room via

<http://interspire.e-flux.com/link.php?M=230532&N=2554&L=5063&F=H> at
20.00 hrs in the UK and exactly the same moment across time zones on the
specified dates—16.00 hrs on the East Coast of America, 21.00 hrs in
mainline Europe and 23.00 hrs in Russia.
The global audience are encouraged to chat with other viewers via social
media channels and to put questions to the artists or curator following
it using Tate's social media channels—twitter.com/tate
<http://interspire.e-flux.com/link.php?M=230532&N=2554&L=5058&F=H> using

The BMW Tate Live Performance Room was inaugurated by French
choreographer and dancer Jérôme Bel with the work /Shirtology@Tate /on
22 March/. /Artists Emily Roysdon
<http://interspire.e-flux.com/link.php?M=230532&N=2554&L=5062&F=H>,
Harrell Fletcher
<http://interspire.e-flux.com/link.php?M=230532&N=2554&L=5059&F=H> and
Joan Jonas
<http://interspire.e-flux.com/link.php?M=230532&N=2554&L=5061&F=H> will
also present works for the BMW Tate Live Performance Room in the coming
months.
On Thursday 31 May, American artist and writer, Emily Roysdon, explores
the intersection of choreography and political action through a
collaborative performance.
Harrell Fletcher's work often takes the form of socially engaged and
interdisciplinary projects. On Thursday 28 June, for BMW Tate Live, he
will work with local amateur performers who ordinarily would not be seen
by the Performance Room's global audience.
The final BMW Tate Live Performance Room in 2012 is by legendary
performance artist, Joan Jonas.**Since the 1960s, she has been a major
figure at the forefront of explorations in film, new media and
performance, transcending genres to develop an influential practice
rooted in space, movement, ritual and gesture.
This innovative format offers international audiences an opportunity to
experience performance works through an entirely new mode of
presentation. Each performance is archived and available to view online
after the live event.
/BMW Tate Live is a four-year partnership between BMW and Tate, which
focuses on performance, interdisciplinary art and curating digital
space. BMW Tate Live: Performance Room is the inaugural strand of the
partnership and features five commissions in 2012./
/BMW Tate Live is curated by Catherine Wood, Curator, Contemporary Art
and Performance, Tate, and Kathy Noble, Curator of Interdisciplinary
Projects, Tate, assisted by Capucine Perrot, Assistant Curator, Tate and
Julia Crabtree.
