An annual series of events specifically curated to introduce the exciting crossover domain between art, technology, science, and society to those not yet familiar with it. This year, the Crash Course in Art & Media Technology will focus on media art's relation to music, dance, theater, and performance art.
Scenography is the crafting of stage environments and atmospheres. In this field, an integral part of the theater, technological innovations in stagecraft, lighting, sound and costume design give rise to new forms of dramatic expression. And more often than not, those innovations originate in or are inspired by the field of media art. In this Crash Course session we’ll explore how media art subdomains such as virtual and augmented reality, algorithmic art, projection mapping and wearable technologies have influenced the theater and challenged its scenographic traditions.
Doors open at 19h, evening starts at 19.30h. If you join us online you will receive a link on the day of the event. Get yout ticket for all four events (at V2_ or online) or this single event here.
