[Upstage-list] UpStage news, & festival opportunity

[helen v. j. <he...@cr...>]

hi everyone,

things appear to be quiet at UpStage, but there is plenty of activity
going on behind the scenes!

Paul Rohrlach is leading the development of "Limelight", a complete
rebuild of UpStage using new technologies and architecture. he is
working with the ongoing student team at Auckland University of
Technology. if you are interested in following the development and
helping out in any capacity - testing and contributing ideas is useful
as well as programming - then check it out at
https://github.com/upstage-org/limelight

an international festival of "Radical Performance" is taking place in
Tehran this summer; the director of the festival says “This festival is
an opportunity to focus on the diverse points of view in the scope of
performance and interdisciplinary studies like Alternative Performance ,
Performance Art, Video Performance (international) and Cyberformance
(international), some of which have been introduced for the first time
to Iranian art scene,”

they actually have an application form specifically for cyberformance:

it would be great to offer some UpStage performances, or other
cyberformance / networked performance that you might be doing at the
moment. as usual the timeframe is short (deadline 5 may! that's FRIDAY!)
but if anyone would like to propose something, please do. UpStage is
working, & i am happy to assist/collaborate/help you remount your
performances.

helen :)
