<![CDATA[Open Call for Oulu Dance Hack 2024]]>This year's Oulu Dance Hack takes place at the end of May in northern FInland. We are currently looking for participants. For the first time in 9 years, we have a budget to be able to pay people.
It's 5 days in a studio exploring the relationship between dance and technology. I'm not sure what equipment will be available this time, but there will be probably be Isadora holding it together.
Participants will be paid a fee, plus per diem. Accommodation is provided, and we will cover travel expenses. We do not use air travel, so Hackers will be required to travel by train/bus/ferry - the payment will include travel time. Later this year, we will be Hacking in Hungary, so if you live in the south/east of Europe, it may be more convenient to apply for a place in Budapest Dance Hack.

Application deadline is 18.2. - more details and link to the application form at: https://taikabox.com/hack/

For anyone interested: here's the video we made during Oulu Dance Hack 2024. Combining Isadora with Touch Designer, Ableton and Unity, with kinect, Arduino sensors, Perception Neuron MoCap, some traditional African shakers, dried flowers and a pole.
5 days in a studio working together to explore the relationship between dance and tech, ending with a public demo of some of the sketches we created.

We're using the mocap to create a choreography that really plays with "invisible forces" to explore the concept. We went on a discovery tour the mocap studio last week and it spawned a lot of movement ideas. I'll end up doing a lot of work in Blender and may end up using Isadora to create some audio and visual reactive animation.

Hi Justin. I'm afraid we can't accept anyone who travels by flying, even if they cover the cost themselves. sorry. we're experimenting with running international projects sustainably - if it works, we can then illustrate to other arts organisations that it is possible to find new methods of working with minimal climate impact.
your project sounds great and I'd love to see some results.

The film will use optical mocap and generative visuals. The piece explores ways in which censorship become incorporated practices in the body. I am working with an internationally well known composer and choreographer. I would love to apply to attend, but I am in Canada. As I would require air travel, would this disqualify me from applying? I would be able to apply to cover the air travel with arts agencies here.
