    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    The Digital Stage: Technology and the Future of Performing Arts explores the implications and applications of contemporary and emergent digital technologies, from a leadership perspective as well as an audience engagement and an artistic and production perspective.   


    From this broad survey of the industry, readers will develop a new understanding for the use of digital technologies in the creation, staging, performing, marketing, distributing and selling of the performing arts. It is essential for the sector to explore and proactively consider adoption of new and disruptive technologies, to ensure the long-term viability of arts institutions and for the sector at large to remain relevant in a rapidly changing context. The Digital Stage seeks to frame a strategic view of the performing arts sector through this lens to understand new practices, identify challenges and barriers ahead and determine key digital technologies that can enable change.   


    The book is organized into three parts: Technology Next, Technology Now and Technology Nexus, and will be of interest to arts managers, production managers and leaders in the performing arts industry.
