Events | INET-md presents thematic line “Performatividades Digitais e Tecnológicas

O Instituto de Etnomusicologia - Centro de Estudos em Música e Dança (INET-md) is launching a new thematic line, "Performatividades Digitais e Tecnológicas” which will be officially presented on October 8th, from 2 pm to 5 pm, at the Universidade de Aveiro campus. This initiative results from a collaboration among various research groups within INET-md and reflects the growing importance of digital technologies in contemporary artistic and performative practices.

The new thematic line aims to investigate the interactions between digital and technological tools and the performing arts, addressing the implications of these technologies in the various fields of music, dance, and theatre that comprise the center. Moreover, it seeks to promote new approaches that respond to the transformations brought about by digital and technological innovations in music, dance, and theatre. The launch event will feature various activities, including a soundwalk, a discussion panel, and a performative moment, involving several researchers from the center.

This date marks a significant milestone for INET-md, reinforcing its role in promoting innovation and research in the performing arts. With this new thematic line, it is expected that new avenues of study—both theoretical and practical—will be explored, potentially making a decisive contribution to advancing research in music, dance, and theatre.
