Case Study: Culture Genesis delivers ultra-low-latency interactive live game shows with Wowza Video

The Digital Studio Focused on Remixing Technology for Multicultural Audiences

Culture Genesis, cofounded by Cedric J. Rogers and Shaun Newsum, builds interactive live media and apps to serve multicultural audiences that mainstream entertainment technology often overlooks. Their challenge was to create a customizable, ultra-low-latency streaming infrastructure capable of supporting real-time, highly interactive experiences across mobile and other platforms.

By using Wowza Streaming Cloud for sub-two-second latency and the Wowza GoCoder SDK, Culture Genesis launched Trivia Mob and the InteractLive production platform, delivering a smooth live game-show experience and enabling new interactive formats. The solution attracted partners and new use cases—including All Def Digital, Universal Music Group, and HartBeat Productions—validating a repeatable platform for live interactive productions.
