Project summary

‘eMotion Tracking’ is an artistic research project that explores the intersections of psychology, embodiment and gestural expression in musical performance in order to design frameworks in which sound emerges from motion. Within these frameworks, dramatized performances will be developed in collaboration with local artists in the residency programs. The psychological focus of the project is isolation and anxiety in the atomised era of digital society. The residency brings together four international festivals to gain collaborative artworks and support the development of artist Tamer Wajda. The leading festival is Cserje Feszt (HU), and the supporting festival partners are Sansusi (Latvia), Experimance Festival (DE) and Are you free? jazz festival (SK)
