Prepare your settings (zoom bombing)

So, as you'd expect Monday Dance Jam can't happen in person until further notice but, the show will go on this week with a pilot of VIDEOJAM with LIVE 2-way video over the internets :)โก๏ธand this week is free. It's happening at our normal time 7pm Monday (will be a 75 minute session). My video stream software (ZOOM) is capped at 100 people so get there early if you want to confirm your spot - digital doors open at 6:45pm.
LOTS TO EXPERIENCE
Live-streamed live-mixed DJ'd jams
Live-streamed nature video art
Live-stream video of my studio
2-way video share (meaning you share live video of yourself with the group if you choose to)
After the dance ends - a toast and optional cocktail / tea party (with shared audio). I understand this activity was recently named "on-nomi" in Japan for drinking with friends on the internet :)
Hang out in digital "break-out rooms" with shared audio for small group catch up (optional)
Love to all and stay safe out there. If you want to join please read everything below ๐
