Germany | University of Göttingen showcase of Asian and multicultural artists

At the University of Göttingen, Germany, the Journal of Ying Ming Theatre's editorial team is calling for Asian and multicultural artists to submit performance proposals on the theme “Exploring the Interrelationship and Convergence of Art and Technology” to be shown in in Göttingen and online between February and May 2024. 

The ever-evolving landscape of technology has undeniably influenced the art world, revolutionising creative expression and pushing boundaries in unimaginable ways. As the world continues to witness rapid technological progress, the organiser seeks both collectives and solo artists who are intrigued by the potential synergy between art and technology, whether they be actors, dancers, musicians, or multidisciplinary artists.

From digital art and interactive installations to virtual reality experiences and algorithmic creations, they encourage artists to explore the vast possibilities that arise when art and technology intertwine.

The call is open to all forms of performing arts and performance and the duration for each performance is 20–30 minutes.
