The term ‘stream’ once trigged associations beyond the screen. Appropriate by tech, it has now become a signifier of endless content production: bottomless content streams, live streaming interfaces, streaming web cameras, streaming simulations, and powerful liquid cooling computer systems.
Live Stream collides these multiple interpretations, creating a content production fountain. Keeping itself in an endless streaming loop, the fountain live streams it’s view (via web camera) onto it’s own a Twitch channel. The project proposes a new type of domestic furniture and content manufacturing fixture.
In Collaboration: Benjamin Borden
