About movement, live performance and computer language

On Saturday 17 June we welcome you to join us for the pilot of the new Why Not series The Body & <>. With each edition, we combine the dance & performance world with another creative scene to give you an insight in this cross-disciplinary practice and open up new ways of thinking. Our aim is to let dance and movement inspire other disciplines, and visa versa.


This first pilot edition, named The Body & < >, is about movement, live performance and computer language. The event consists of artist talks and performances, focusing on the intersection of choreography and coding.

During the day, both dancers/performers and coders participate in a workshop by Joana Chicau.


PROGRAM

10:00 - 18:00 : workshop

Fee = 30 euro (incl. lunch and dinner)


• Coding choreographies - Joana Chicau

This workshop offers a cross-disciplinary exploration of choreography & (web)code. We create a temporary stage for experimenting with web design tools which follow choreographic methods and thematic concerns. The outcome is a piece of ‘choreographic code' — all participants are invited to contribute to the choreographic code by translating the ideas discussed in the session into html/css/javascript functions or as prototypes developed in other formats.

We will select and create interdisciplinary pairs or groups of different entry levels and expertise. At the end of the day, there is room to present the outcome to your fellow workshops participants.
