SIDance (Seoul International Dance Festival) collaborates with cont·act Contemporary Dance Festival (Singapore) to present Stre@m - An Asian Digital Dance Platform.
Amidst various worldwide restrictions on creating and performing live, these last two years have seen new modes of making and sharing emerge in virtual spaces and presences. In a hybrid world where the physical and digital become increasingly intertwined, SIDance and cont·act are calling for digital works that reflect and experiment with movement and the body in these new spaces. All digital works are welcome, including, but not limited to, short films, documentaries, and recorded versions of staged performances.
Selected works will be hosted on a year-long digital platform, via a video-on-demand format. A small honorarium will be awarded for the first three months (S$200 - S$500), followed by a percentage of the monthly income generated from ticket sales. In addition, artists may be invited to be part of the platform’s various talks and forums. The platform will also include opportunities for artists and presenters to connect via in-site interactions, allowing artists and presenters to cultivate partnerships and increase future collaborations regionally and internationally.
Singaporean and Southeast Asian artists, collectives and companies with contemporary movement and physical theatre backgrounds are welcome to apply.
