We are seeking three dancers to take part in our project, Aeolia, in the centre of Nottingham.

We are exploring the design process of textile sensors on the body and have been working with cellist Peter Gergson and sound engineer Yann Seznec, showing at the MIT Media Lab, InSpace (Edinburgh) and the House of Lords (London) - yes, we were surprised too...

The next stage of the project is to introduce movement and we invite you to come and respond to Peter's music while wearing the woven, embroidered and knitted garments which house stretch sensors - we will use your feedback to inform what the garments eventually do, and to assess placement of the textile sensors.

There is a confirmed exhibition for the video documentation of this in June in Dundee, Scotland, with all participants credited fully, and we will cover your expenses.

Please email Sarah at sarah.kettley@ntu.ac.uk.
