Madrid-HelloWorld!, Contemporary Stage Creation and New Technologies

[helena febres fraylich]

What is HelloWorld!

The project aims to foster the dialog between new technologies and performing arts, considering that in our city is more common to find works based in installations, contemporary art or interactive and non performative works. We will try to explore stage possibilities of new technologies by creating a small format project production platform for contemporary theater. And therefore, to explore different disciplines such as moving artes, object theater, children theater, etc.

These workshops will try to create a work and project production platform within the framework of Medialab Prado and HelloWorld!

Projects will be selected through an open call to be collaboratively developed. One of the most important requirements of the proposals is to join new technologies and stage work: contemporary performance, moving arts, narrative, visual, openframeworks, Pure data, processing, OpenGl, augmented reality, metaverse, electronics, robotics, videogames, interaction, etc. The call is aimed at performing arts creators, performres, choreographers, visual and object theater artists, etc, and encourages the reflection about stage space, public space and narrative forms that arise through the interaction of both disciplines.
