The show after dinner showed to me how much a live presentation of artistic and musical performance transmits – it is so much richer than conserved/recorded media. Take as an example the shadow play – I really enjoyed it as live performance. In comparison to 3D animation movies it has little fidelity but it still works extremely well to engage people in the live presentation. But I could not imagine that I would watch it on TV – hence we probably miss something in creating the experience when playing/presenting conserved media. I would expect there is a lot potential in creating a social situation for digital media consumption that could improve the experience.Live experience – media consumption is social
