How it Works

TrashTalk Theater works by creating a local wireless network that links a web-based user interface with a custom movie playback and text rendering engine. Any device with a web browser, such as a laptop, a smartphone or a tablet computer can be used to send comments or subtitles directly to the screen as the movie is playing (although a laptop or other full-keyboard device is recommended for quick typing). The interface may also be used to vote for basic transport controls like a brief pause or rewind. One person alone cannot initiate these events; they occur only if enough people agree and vote with you.

So please, when the movie starts, do not turn off your cell phone. Do not put away your electronic devices. In fact, we will set up a table for you and your gadgets. Log in and start talking some trash!

TrashTalk Theater is created and curated by San Diego based interactive artist Jason Ponce. For bookings, questions, or to submit film requests for the next event please send me a message using the contact form. Thanks, and enjoy the show!
