“Performing arts Workshops, electronics and free/libre technologies applied to the performing arts.” consists in a workshops program for performers, choreographers, actors, artistic directors and theatre art technicians, and general public interested in interaction and the audio/visual body. The aim is to enhance the competences on the use of digital tools applied to interaction, sound, light, devices control, robotics, etc. with free technologies!
The program includes 3 different workshops by some of the most experimental dancers and developers in Europe: Ugo Dehaes from Belgium, Kenneth Flak and Külli Roosna, from Norway and Estonia, Mindaugas Gapsevicius from Lithuania.
These 3 groups have been working in the performing arts investigating the technological possibilities from different perspectives. The program tries to open the field from the body and spatial concept and the interaction with the audiences, to the technologies we can use. From body movement performances to body signalling like EEG or Artificial Intelligence devices interpreting the spatial situations as a whole.
The workshops program we are presenting here will take place at Bergen Dance Center, Georgernes Verft 12, 5011 Bergen.
