Working From Home (WFH)

by: Live-ish

Live streaming has turned the home into a digital platform. Open 24/7 for the non seasonal internet, a broadcaster’s home, interior life, and body have evolved into an interactive display that plays host to strangers — both human and machine — to author their own version of reality upon it.

Live-ish presents Episode 6, Working From Home, a collection of human and machine authored live streams for the supervised-televised-domesticized laborer. Collapsing multiple streams onto one another, the on-camera show is a competitive-esporting-catastrophe that runs on just mere presence — a human or object (it’ll take what it can get, even a circle will do). Launch Working From Home and host everyone’s favorite work like, sports, eating, cars, sleeping, and more!

Live-ish is a digital publication of design research that explores how live streaming media has crafted an emergent “livestyle;” a way of living within the world that has become increasingly influenced by our 24/7 screen-based interfaces. Developed as a media category in the 1990s, the term “lifestyle” was popularized by Martha Stewart books, magazines, TV shows, recipes, home decor, fashion, advice… Today we purchase “experiences”: all-encompassing 24/7 games-shows-exhibitions-bodies-events that are found, activated, watched, played, shared, tracked, unedited, favorited, followed, friended, designed by “user experience” (UX) designers, and all initiated by the screen.
