Isadora related Academic Conferences / Journals / Symposia

Isadorables,

Aside from our bi-annual Isadora Werkstatt in Berlin, what other platforms might be available for presenting performance research involving Isadora? Are there other symposia? Conferences? Meetups? I'm not thinking so much about creative meetups where we all get together to make stuff, more where people exchange ideas and research findings.

Also, what academic journals might be appropriate to submit research findings in work with interactive performance?

Thank you all!

Hi.

See here: https://community.troikatronix.com/topic/6394/liverpool-uk-training-mini-meetup/8

I want to do training but I am open to ideas about sharing work and research too.

Yes, a good name to remember form the Dance and Technology Listserve days of the late ‘90’s. He wrote the seminal book Media and Performance : Along the Border, 1998. It is great to be reminded of those endeavours and to reflect on where those aims and sentiments have landed today.

What is Dance and Technology today?

Ah ha! My thesis title! Thank you :-)

(joking!)

The pace of technological innovation and its embrace by performers/makers is so rapid that you have to be faster than Nijinsky (the horse, not the dancer) to keep up! Today's answer is already outdated. Discuss. But perhaps not here!

Johannes wrote about the first piece i made using Isadora back in 2011 (http://www.corpusweb.net/after-dance.html) then invited me to present an installation at one of his symposia at Brunel, which was great (I met the lovely Frieder Weiss that week as well)
