La MaMa and CultureHub team up to create Downtown Variety, a weekly online live performance series that will feature short acts of dance, music, theater, new media, comedy, A/V performance, and more. Responding to calls for social isolation, Downtown Variety brings La MaMa's 1960s café aesthetic to a virtual platform that links performers and audiences in real time across distance. La MaMa and CultureHub will use emerging technologies to create a new venue for artistic expression that questions how art can function and how we as a society can survive challenging periods of history.
Powered by LiveLab, an experimental software CultureHub is developing for networked collaboration between artists, technologists, and audiences.
Artists for this week include: Rhiannon McGavin, Dillon Yruegas and Jess O’Rear, Joseph Brock, Nia & Ness, Nick Demopoulos, Carrie Sijia Wang and Tong Wu, with video art by Naama Zarfaty!
Hosted by Mattie Barber-Bockelman
Creative Technologist — Sangmin Chae
Lead Technician — DeAndra Anthony
Video Production Coordinator — Jean Garcia
