Telematic Concert Zurich — Hongkong

The concert event is a live network performance via internet played simultaneously by musicians in Zurich and Hong Kong. The concert can be attended in person at any of the two locations. Due to different time zones (6 hrs time difference) the concert will be held in Hong Kong in the evening and in Zurich in early afternoon. The high-definition audio and video network technology provides a collocated venue for synchronous performance. (zurichmeetshongkong.org)
