LAQs
(Likely asked questions)
I’m so confused. This is my first Pew Pew Virtual event. What's happening?
Don't you worry. This virtual event is unlike any other. It is part dance party, part art show, and part interactive theater. We suggest you show up early to catch the entire show, as it will develop like a bizarre circus act, in which plot is constantly rediscovering itself.
What is Zoom?
It's ok to ask.. Zoom is the video platform we use for the interactive show and dance party. Being on zoom will give you the full experience.
Ok, then what is Twitch?
Twitch is the website hosting the live audio stream throughout the entire event. For all the beats and surprises, open the twitch link (twitch.tv/pewpewnyc) before the event starts and keep it on until the until party's over (it's never over).
Turning my video on at a large virtual event is intimidating. Do I have to?
Of course not!
And don't feel intimidated. Pew Pew will be controlling the video spotlight throughout the event. Between all the performances, wild scenes, and even wilder guests, I can promise your video won't be noticed in the group unless you want it to be.
How do I virtually $$ tip $$ the performers?
To keep things simple - send all venmo tips to (@nate-long). Make sure to include the name of the performer you'd like the tip to go to. And please do consider tipping. These wild unicorns make life so much better with their creative talents.
What should I have ready leading up to the party?
-
Download the Zoom app and test your mic/camera in advance.
-
Enjoy some libations or poison of your choice. You animals :-)
-
Get dressed in the theme. Good news: you are in your own home, so no one is going to see you but us. It’s time to get W-E-I-R-D.
-
Stretch and drink some water. It's generally just a good habit to form.
