What?
A Placard is:
- a live streaming session accross multiple days
- with anybody who can reserve some "slots" of time for his/her performance
- usually lasting 2 or 3 days at a given location (here, for the first time a WTH, in a camping)
- patching into a network of several placard around the world (see [http://leplacard.org/2005/])
- streamed around the globe to a small audience of music heads
- a place people tend to be present onsite when they perform, but they can also be located remotely and perform through the net
Usually, you reserve a slot of 30 minutes to 1 hour, and you get the emitting end of the stream so that you can show your own music to people. It's not about playing your playlist, it's about playing what you actually make as music.
The understanding of music is fairly large :)
