Alternative Stages | BEYOND THE STAGE | Live Music Meets a New Reality

03/11/2021 // 4:00 pm - 5:30 pm @ The FuseBox

Are you a musician, venue owner or gig promoter who wants to discuss the possibilities and challenges of creating virtual gigs?
How can new technologies like virtual reality and 5G impact the way that audiences engage with gigs?

Join us for the second in a series of events:
- Find out more about the creative and technical possibilities of virtual gigs
- Discover how different gig promoters and event organisers have been experimenting with new technologies

We'll be hosting a panel discussion, as well as live demos and networking.

Ahead of the event, watch Phil Jones, MD of Wired Sussex in conversation with Dr. Michael Williams, Senior Lecturer in International Event Management at the University of Brighton (VIDEO COMING SOON). His research explores music events: the spectacle, fan communities and identity and politics, plus the use of digital technologies in the production and consumption of events such as Burning Man, Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, and global touring productions, such as U2's 360 tour.

Hosted by Chris T-T
The event is hosted and moderated by writer, broadcaster and musician C.J. Thorpe-Tracey.
