Synergy

The Rotterdam Production house (V2_Lab and the Rotterdam City Theater), the Faculty of Art, Media and Technology of the Utrecht School of the Arts, Delft Technical University and the Dance group Krisztina de Châtel, initiated a two month research laboratory for interdisciplinary arts.

This laboratory was a multidisciplinary project, where media art, machine art, dance, choreography, electronic music and technology met. It dealt with a synergetic mix of several media and the expansion of the limitations of each discipline. The participants worked on the production of an interactive unconventional performance piece to be performed in the Rotterdam city theater.

Synergie was a co-operation between composers, dansers, choreographers and fine artist presented by Hogeschool voor de Kunsten Utrecht, Faculteit Kint, Media & Technologie, Dans Group Kristina de Châtel and Rotterdams Productiehuis (Rotterdamse Schouwburg & V2_Lab International Lab for the Unstable Media Rotterdam). The experiment resulted in four small multimedia projects with the titels Super Eva, Objectworx, Pull@net and Chemical Wedding. The project was performed at Ludwig Forum, Aachen, Rotterdamse Schouwburg and at Frascati, Amsterdam.
