The Concept of the Opera was to send the sound to a Hospital at 14 km from Brussels to a Patient with the Locked-in Syndrome, which is filmed live and the images projected on a big screen in the theater.
The Sound was recorded with a traditional setup (see other opera's) and mixed live in the production booth on a Yamaha PM5D. Then the sound was transmitted with Nicecast and the down-link was done by the wifi network of the hospital on a ipod with a ATH M50 Headset.

The Videotransmittion was done on the 4G network of the 3 Belgian operators with a LiveU field set and a Glidecam on a motorcycle.
The same Microphone setup was then send to a protools system and Mixed for Video. The core of this audio network is an optocore system, where every microphone can be assigned to a diversity of machines as the Mixing desk and a MADI stream for Protools.
