Digital Body

Digital Body is a series of ongoing intensive labs and residencies dedicated to exploring performance and technology. Each lab is designed to break down preconceived notions about technology and art in order to reimagine from the ground up how technological tools might expand the creation, rehearsal and performance of live artworks. Guided by experts in the fields of dance and technology, and inspired by contributions from guest speakers, this lab series is intended to expand both participants’ practical technical skills as well as their philosophical grounding in the use of technology in performance. The Digital Body project consists of a small, recurring group of artists who convene yearly to build on skills and knowledge from previous labs. A Process Blog, maintained by participants, accompanies each lab — follow along in real time, or enjoy past lab archives, by clicking the event links below.
