This event, developed in collaboration with Essex Cultural Diversity Project, focuses on diversity amongst artists working with movement and creative tech. From VR to motion sensors, programming to podcasting – join us as we examine how emergent art forms can enable self-expression in new and liberating ways.
In a blend of Collusion’s ART // TECH // PLAY LIVE and Essex Cultural Diversity Project’s Stand Up for Diversity events, you’ll hear from a remarkable group of artists, get the opportunity to chat and interact with some of their work, and explore the cutting-edge facilities of DanceEast’s Digital Suite.
Everyone welcome!
