This performance workshop is part of an initiative to foster intellectual and artistic exchange in XR (extended reality) studies. We invite you to join a three-week workshop, a collaboration between faculty/students in the Art Department and the Department of Film & Digital Arts at UNM.

The workshop will begin in Week 10 of the semester and will include students from FDMA 491: Blender and ARTS 446/546: The Politics of Performance, along with interested performers from various fields. Interested artist/scholars will collaborate with students in FDMA 491 to create performances that incorporate 3-D rendered objects in virtual reality.

The three-week collaboration will culminate in a public performance. The performance will be streamed online through the Department of Film & Digital Arts platform and presented at the UNM Art Museum.

Attendance is free. Selected participants will commit to at least 3 meetings with collaborators, as well as participation in the final rehearsal and performance, which will take place on Saturday, April 19.

📩 Apply by Mar 24, 12PM: Send portfolio (website or PDF) optional CV to Prof. Szu-Han Ho (szho@unm.edu). Space is limited!

Risky Moves is the Spring Student Choreography Concert featuring new dance works by UNM students. The Student Choreography Concert provides emerging choreographers a chance to put their training to the test and experience the vulnerable and empowering process of sharing their work with the public. Students also develop various skills involved in producing dance performance, including leading a rehearsal process, working with lighting designers, writing about their creative work, and participating in marketing.
