MODINA project presented at CNDB, Romania
Between 5 and 8 November 2025, ITI researchers Diogo Cabral and David dos Santos presented the MODINA — Movement, Digital Intelligence and Interactive Audience project at CNDB – National Centre for Dance Bucharest, within the Iridescent International Festival of Contemporary Dance.
The programme brought together artists, researchers, and audiences to reflect on creative processes at the intersection of dance, technology, and digital intelligence. As part of the festival, David dos Santos (ITI) moderated post-performance conversations following:
- This Is Unreal — by Pierre Godard & Liz Santoro (5 November)
- Baby — by Viktor Szeri, Tamás Páll & Gyula Muskovics (7 November)
On 8 November, MODINA was further explored through a dedicated seminar session with talks by:
- Diogo Cabral (ITI researcher)
- David dos Santos (ITI researcher)
- Ana Rodrigues (PhD candidate)
The Bucharest seminar foregrounded interaction as a core dimension of artistic creation, positioning the audience as an active participant in processes of sense-making between dance and digital intelligence.
