Love this post and reading about " remote lounge " ! I ran a night in a Chinatown dive bar here in Melbourne , Australia back in 1998 and inspired by the release of FSOL " ISDN " back then we streamed live performances from another club in Adelaide using 2 - bonded ADSL 128 Kbps links. It worked great despite just having enough bandwidth for decent audio and we ran 2 - small parties that were done like this ..
Though my real vision at the time was to have all 4 - walls projection mapped with video from other locations and perhaps create an " in between " space. That could link with different places around the world. There was a project in the UK around 2005 that tried to do this using a circular ring with cameras. However , am surprised that nobody has attempted more with telepresence in public spaces ..
