Coding being the act of encoding/decoding information from one representation to another. The system itself is called a Code and these are designed to have specific properties like making transmission of information resistant to interference, corruption or interception, etc.

"Codes are used for data compression, cryptography, error detection and correction, data transmission and data storage." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coding_theory

It's like the inverse of Gil Scott Heron's "The revolution will not be televised"

"The Nuclear Holocaust Will Be Televised"

There's even a trailer from the Reagan era: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sBtu0gr6JqM

But it seems the format is going to be in the style of reality TV shows from 10-20 years ago.

Here's what I found about the underlying system https://www.tvtechnology.com/news/the-software-behind-the-hi... and the Hitachi Vantara Press Release: https://www.hitachivantara.com/en-us/news/gl240307

"27 nodes, with 4PB of flash storage for playback within Sphere and streamed in real-time to 7thSense media servers, each streaming 4K video at 60 frames per second"

I would be interested to better understand how synchronization is achieved here. Is that a relatively solved problem for applications such as this or was there significant engineering to achieve it at this scale?
