A performance-led research project setting out to investigate new digital business models and markets for contemporary performance.
In a research collaboration with the University of Nottingham, the project will explore new digital business models and global infrastructures for performance artists. The main focus of the project is to explore the opportunities and potential of the digital economy for contemporary performing arts.
The project involves a broad range of artists, researchers, performers and venues. The project is lead by Lumo Company (FI) in collaboration with University of Nottingham (UK. )
Other partners in the project include The University of Nottingham in The UK; Riga Cirks in Latvia; Jacksons Lane in The UK and Circomedia in The UK.
Physical and visual expression is the power and source of Lumos’ work. They combine circus, movement and different art forms to create highly visual performances, which unveil the abundance of ways there are for people to communicate. In all their shows, they want to tackle socially engaging themes around issues of power and questions that unite and divide human beings.
