Re: [DIYbio] Streaming platform for science

Hi Hans,

A daily "ride-along" with a biological research scientist sounds fantastic! YouTube Live might be your best bet for reaching a larger audience, as it has a strong foundation for streaming and audience engagement. Given that you'll be working with gloves and at the bench, minimizing interaction with a keyboard and mouse would be ideal.

If you're aiming to stream to a smaller, more focused group, you might consider self-hosting using Jitsi, an open-source platform I really like.

For ongoing experiments, another approach could be to record and edit a video to focus on key points and questions. You could then share it across various communities like DIYbio, YouTube, r/labrats, and with a select email group of subject matter experts.

Best,
James



James, I was planning on streaming my day-to-day in a research university lab.



I imagine 0-5 people may join in at any given time. The idea would be mostly to meet and talk with other scientists in my field. Maybe we could discuss ongoing experiments with each other. I work on bacteriophages and am doing a lot of sequencing lately, and could use all the help I can get.

Hi Nathan,

Have you see JoVE.com, (Journal of Visual Experiments)?  

 I see you're exploring options for a streaming platform for science videos, and I'm currently working on a related project. I'm curious to learn more about your use case to see how it aligns with what I'm working on.

Are you primarily focused on watching science videos, or are you the creator of these videos? Also, could you provide some details on the scope of your content? For example, how many videos are you planning to stream, and what's the average size of these files? Lastly, how many viewers do you anticipate streaming your videos?

Best regards,
James
