GYOML in a field - Free Guide to Streaming Technologies
For this commission Nick Holme was investigating and assessing the various FOSS software that are available for live streaming, deciding on one method for the purpose of the research and producing a comprehensive guide on how to set up and use the software. The guide and a set of case studies are attached.
He used two "test" environments apart from his home installation in order to give as much flexibility as possible to the final documentation. One test was in a school environment where children can use the technology to experiment with broadcasting sound over the internal intranet as well as the internet, and the other for an organisation for the blind who currently send out audio tapes of local news but who could set up a news channel broadcasting over the internet given the software and techniques covered in the research.
