Arts-Tech Things Are Happening And You Should Know

Misnomer Dance TheaterYou're reading this, so you must love the convergence of art and technology. If I am correct in my assumption, there are a couple events you might be interested in knowing about.

Audience & Tech Conference, Dec. 13-16, 2011

Tonight through Friday, 12/16, representatives from the eight grantees of the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation’s Continuing Innovation program will come together in New York City to delve into a topic that has important implications for all of their projects -- Audience Engagement & Technology.

EmcArts is designing and facilitating the convening, and you can follow their live blog of the conference at artsfwd.org.

Misnomer Dance Theater - Live Online Performance and Q&A, Dec. 16, 2011

Misnomer Dance Theater will offer a live stream of its performance and audience Q&A at 7:30 pm EST on December 16 at www.misnomer.org. Watch and chat in real-time with audiences worldwide!

DESCRIPTION: In Time Lapse, the Company journeys into the unusual, humorous, and serious corners of memory, while in Future Perfect-er, we explore what would happen to a dance if it woke up on the other side of the bed, was born a day later or existed in a parallel universe. This moving season can not be missed!

Known for its improbable partnering, unique movement language, and international collaborations with artists ranging from Bjork to Evan Ziporyn, MDT offers this program of curious encounters, outrageous undertakings, and transformative dance.
