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,” http://radicalperformance.ir/en/news/golden-radical-prize-open-call-for-the-first-international-festival-of-radical-performance/ they actually have an application form specifically for cyberformance: http://radicalperformance.ir/en/cyberformance-application-form/ 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 :) -- helen varley jamieson he...@cr... <mailto:he...@cr...> http://www.creative-catalyst.com http://www.upstage.org.nz *We have a situation, Coventry! <http://www.wehaveasituation.net/?p=1402>* 24 November 2016 |
