WORKSHOP PROGRAM FOR THE PARTICIPANTS

Wednesday, October 12-Saturday, October 15, from 10am to 16.00pm
The workshop will explore relationship between dance, interactive performance/live act, sound and video through theoretical introduction and practical work. The workshop's objective is to introduce workshop participants with the interdisciplinary potential of video and sound as a technological tool and artistic means of expression and its capacity of manipulation in real-time.

Neven Korda Neven Korda

The theoretical part will outline videodance genre and the transmission of live act to performative video. It will show video document as research material and archive.

The practical part: The participants will discover different layers of interactive performance: the layer of geometrical movement, the layer of choreographed dance, the layer of sound surrounding, and the layer of image. The collaboration between the participants will result as a project-in-process that will take place in real space and real time and will be publicly demonstrated at the end of the workshop.

The participants: The workshop is dedicated for visual, video and sound artists, dancers/performers, dramaturges, choreographers, VJ’s… with professional expertise or with a need to acquire it. They will obtain basic experience about: interaction of performers’ movements with interventions by dramaturgy; choreography and video; simultaneous transmission on screens and loudspeakers; computer manipulation with streamed data; computer manipulation with sound; capture of different data with the help of different sensor technology/instruments, manipulation of time.
