Technology, the Body, and Choreography

Free residency at Lake Studios Berlin sponsored by TroikaTronix – Mark Coniglio

 

We invite dance makers invested in the field of technology to apply for this special 4 - 6 week residency hosted at Lake Studios Berlin between July 1 – August 15 2018

We are searching for artists who consciously use elements of technology to affect the choreographic process and performance. We look for work that uses technology to expand or intervene in the body’s performative and choreographic possibilities while keeping the human body in the foreground of the work. The role of the technology should be integral to the choreographic expression: it should connect, organize or disrupt the body or bodies aesthetically, socially, or politically.

 

To apply please submit the following (please use the provided application form provided if possible!):

 

-  An artist statement (no more than 200 words) about how you define, perceive and work with the element of technology in your 

   performance work.

-  A description (no more than 500 words) of what you would like research and develop during the residency

-  Supporting video and documentation material of current and/or past work

-  Your CV and the CVs of any collaborating artists

 

We will provide:

  • a private room and access to a shared kitchen, and bathroom in the Lake Studios Complex for one person. A second bed is available in the room.

  • 100 hours of studio space divided between our small and large studios

  • Technical equipment: 2 beamers, selected stage lights/light board, sound system and mixer, microphones, sound recorder, video camera to record rehearsals, etc.

  • A presentation of the first stage of the work for feedback in our performance series Unfinished Fridays on July 27

  • 2 hours of coaching by Mark Coniglio (creator of the media programming software Isadora)

  • 50€/ week stipend

 

The selected resident must provide his/her own transportation and meals.

 

Lake Studios would like to thank TroikaTronix, maker of Isadora, for their generous financial support of this residency.

by March 15, 2018 to lakestudiosberlin@gmail.com
