Do you want to explore new possibilities of performance through digital technologies? Join us for this experimental workshop and open exchange. The international experts Matt Romein and Jean-François Jégo will present their artistic projects, research tools and explore new ideas with the participants.

We will experiment with FaceRig Studio (camera-based facial performance of avatars), Perception Neuron (geo-spatial, non-camera-based mo-cap system) the Optitrack and other motion capture systems at the InnovationLab.

The workshop is open to students, researchers and alumni of all departments at ZHdK & members of the InnovationLab. Please send us your contact information and affiliation/connection to conference.ipf@zhdk.ch by 22 May to participate in the workshop (limited number of places available).

This Workshop is part of the SNF research project „Actor and Avatar“ by IPF, ITH and Schweizerisches Epilepsie-Zentrum (Klinik Lengg AG).
