Now entering its fourth year, Low Lives is an international exhibition of
live performance-based works transmitted via the internet and projected
in real time at multiple venues throughout the U.S. and around the
world. Low Lives examines works that critically investigate, challenge,
and extend the potential of performance practice presented live through
online broadcasting networks. These networks provide a new alternative
and efficient medium for presenting, viewing, and archiving
performances. Low Lives is not simply about the presentation of
performative gestures at a particular place and time but also about the
transmission of these moments and what gets lost, conveyed, blurred, and
reconfigured when utilizing this medium. Low Lives embraces works with a
lo-fi aesthetic such as low pixel image and sound quality, contributing
to a raw, DIY and sometimes voyeuristic quality in the transmission and
reception of the work.
