StreamArtStudio, UkrainiaTV, and friends are running a 24-hour experimental hybrid livestream now, together with friends like the Konfluxus Collective in Budapest and Ikalto in Tbilisi, across PeerTube, decentralized networks, and conventional platforms like YouTube. And it’s full of everything from DJs in Vilnius to Ukrainian and Georgian radical poetry to … well someone was doing something in tens. John Object joins Hovsep and Ivan Skoryna in a don’t-miss Pastka.Elevator set at 19:00 Kyiv time (18:00 Berlin; high noon NYC time).
We should probably talk about PeerTube and decentralized video soon, but I’m off to the demo, so – here’s the full calendar. Does it always make sense / can you always read what you’re looking at? No, but that’s not the point. Scan QR codes, click around, discover some weird sounds – it all brings back the joy of messing with a radio dial and finding something you didn’t expect.

The stream right now is making very wonderful alien duck sounds with distortion.
This is the least decentralized way to do this, but since I can embed it quickly, enjoy this YouTube embed like it’s 2011 or something:
Thinking I should bring a speaker so I can blast this set at the demo:
And to center some Ukrainian voices here, Timur (John Object) also links to this text.
Don’t let the autocrats win. Any of them.
