Europeana Space Prague Hackathon 2015

‘Hacking the [Dancing] Body’

CIANT Center for Art and New Technologies Prague

2015 November

I have been commissioned by CIANT Center for Art and New Technologies Prague to attend the ‘Hacking the [Dancing] Body’ Hackathon (a hacking marathon), held in November 2015, jointly organized with Europeana Space, C-DaRE Centre for Dance Research at Coventry University and REMIX Summits Business Incubation London; and to provide, along with other experts, consulting and guidance to the participants.

I ended up forming my own team and developing a concept that combined body motion tracking with a brain-computer interface and 3D game environments to shake up how to explore cultural heritage in a highly innovative way; and went on to become one of the three winners of the Hackathon.

Winning project: ’In The Moment’

The Europeana Space organized an exciting event about the use and re-use of cultural digital content in dance in particular. Participants formed teams and during two days of focused and intensive collaboration, with assistance from the hackathon ambassadors (experts in programming, BCI (brain/computer interface) scientists, specialists in motion-tracking and cultural heritage), explored new creative ideas and designs, and developed prototypes. The Prague Dance Hackathon focused on the re-use of cultural heritage materials in live performance, cross-media storytelling, motion tracking and transformation of data, brain/computer interfaces in performance. We encouraged participants to combine different aspects of these elements to create something truly new and unique that would shake up the market! We were seeking creative and driven participants with a passion for dance, technology and digital cultural heritage, who would want to take their creative ideas and prototypes to the commercial sector and raise the possibilities for creative re-use of cultural heritage material and dance technology.
