121212 UpStage Festival of Cyberformance | Call for submissions

UpStage is an open source platform for cyberformance: remote performers combine images, animations, audio, web cams, text and drawing in real-time for an online audience. The UpStage project team members have been experimenting with various forms of online theatre since 1999, and since 2002 have worked together as the globally dispersed performance troupe Avatar Body Collision. The idea for UpStage was born from our experiments with using a variety of online chat technologies.

Upstage is inviting proposals for new cyberformance work (live online performance) to be presented at the 121212 UpStage Festival of Cyberformance, to take place online on 12 December 2012.

The proposals should be for live work that is situated online, in any platform that is publicly accessible. Performances should be no longer than 20 minutes, and can address any theme or topic.
