Dossier
Streaming Media
This dossier can be seen as a continuation of the work that was started in 2000 with the preparations for the international festival of streaming media, net.congestion. The particular angle adopted by De Balie, was to look at the new cultures that arise from all forms of micro-, narrow- and broad-casting via the internet. Streaming media was seen at the time, and to a lesser extent still is, as an extension of broadcast media to the internet. Most (commercial) models and modes of understanding the new media froms derive from this idea. We consider this model unnecessarily limiting for the creative media formations that can arise when streaming media are developed imaginatively.

In May 1998, at the third annual conference of RealNetworks, Mitch Kapor stressed the "emotional bandwidth" in his keynote speech.

But I would like to insist his concept was more idiosyncratically than he thought.
