A project log for Window on the world

Screens in the streets and in art centers to make video exchanges between cities

Hello dear Followers!

As a bright new year is starting, I thought I would write a log for each of my project.

This project didn't go as planned, at least no yet.
I was expecting some funding by the city but I didn't get it. The city seems interested by a lighter -non live- version of the project, it would use the already installed ClearChannel screens that are in the city center. I see this as a first step for the original "live stream in the street" project.
But I think it would be more realistic to have a mobile version of the project:
instead of having outdoor screens sealed on the ground, I think that it is more realistic to use vans to deploy movable outdoor screens and 4G/5G streaming system that will be installed during the day with people supervising the system. A temporary and autonomous setup would save a lot of red tapes and authorization requests, plus, it would allow to cover a greater number of cities.
Fortunately, there is a potential european funding for this project :

If you are from Europe and have experience in European funding projects, don't hesitate to contact me. I already have potential partners but more wouldn't hurt!

I'll keep you updated, meanwhile I wish you a happy new year and a happy hacking!
