The Post and Courier’s Live Twitter Wall is up! The scrolling wall of text made its debut Friday at the opening night of the Trocks at The Gaillard Auditorium. Onlookers stared at the large-scale video installation of real-time live tweets on the second-floor lobby wall as they entered the auditorium and during both intermissions. Audience members were able to see their own contributions to the festival-wide online discussion, while picking up tips and sneak peaks from tweeters at other locales.

If you missed the first run, don’t fret. The Twitter Wall will be on view at Gaillard an hour before each of the shows listed below. Stop by and keep tweeting using #spoto.

Monday, May 31, Strauss, Ravel, 7:30 p.m.

Wednesday, June 2, Lizz Wright, 8 p.m.

Tuesday, June 8, Mozart, Brahms, Verdi, 7:30 p.m.

Friday, June 11, Giselle, 7 p.m.

The Tweet Wall at Gaillard Auditorium

Have you seen our Tweet wall? It will be making appearances around town at special events. It is the brainchild of Sarah Zimmerman, a Goldring Arts Journalism writer who studies design. It is the Twitter feed for all items Spoleto and Piccolo.

Tweet and join the conversation. Use #spoto to appear on the wall. (Hint: It changes every 6 seconds.)
