Performance Situation Room – the space where new media technologies meet performing arts

4Culture Association launched on www.4culture.ro a new performative web installation, realized in the frame of Performance Situation Room, a cultural project co-financed by the Ministry of Culture, through Acces Online Programme and supported by the european network and project Life Long Burning, co-funded by the Creative Europe Programme of the European Union.

Performance Situation Room is a space for reflection, which gives the opportunity to performers, players and to the public to test and apply spontaneously new formats and new scenaries in a virtual space, through games and experimentation.

When all the social, public professional and cultural live spaces are disappearing one by one from our routine, reuniting in a unique private space, what happens to our perception on time and environment?

The proposed concept introduce a new possible scenario by questioning the different levels of reality and the relationship between image representation and time. Situated at the convergence between art and technology, the performative space develops new virtual dimmensions accesible to the general public through an interactive web application. The performers and their audience share the same virtual space, exploring new versions of the temporal existance.

This new visual perspective of the digital space – as the main medium of artistic manifestation in the pandemic period that we are facing, it offers new possible ways of artistic expression and conceptual approach, and above all, the opportunity for common exploratory collaborations.
