Gorgeous Festival 2011: Live HD Concert Video

Thursday, December 1st, 2011 by

The inaugural Gorgeous Festival was held in McLaren Vale, one of South Australia’s premier wine regions, on 26th September 2011, headlined by Icehouse and also featuring Josh Pyke and Emma Louise.

Internode is proud to provide you with free high quality streaming video of this great event. The streaming service offered by our CDN automatically scales up the video stream quality to the best that your connection allows, with the maximum quality stream requiring about 8 megabits per second of downstream throughput.

As an added bonus, these video streams are provided on an unmetered basis to Internode ADSL and FTTH customers!

These recordings were negotiated, rights cleared, recorded, live-edited and post-produced in house by the very talented Internode content team, and they are being delivered via the Internode CDN.

Kudos to that team for their excellent work, and of course huge kudos to these great Australian bands for being kind enough to let us show you their work in this way.

We intend to use this experience as a starting point for potential future events.

In an era in which most current conversation about ISPs and the creative work of artists seems to be about high court challenges from Hollywood, we’re proud to be doing just a little bit of what actually helps: Using our technology to connect the work of great artists to audiences in a legal and engaging way, across our brilliant national network.

So – please find a big screen and a nice sound system, sit back, and enjoy some great Australian artists doing what they do best.
