Digital Futures in Dance is an opportunity for artists, promoters, producers, venues, academics and creative and digital companies to come together to discuss future possibilities for dance and technology.

The conference is structured around three interrelated themes explored through presentations, workshops, performances and installations:
The Expanded Stage: Stage, screen and bodies – What will be the stages for dance in the future?
New Body Intelligence: Body data as raw material – How will new intelligence of the body influence choreography in the future?
Social Interaction: Mobile and interactive technology devices – How will increased interactivity influence the creation and reception of dance in the future?
The programme will feature international artists and researchers across the dance, technology and media spectrums including Jonah Bokaer, Billie Cowie, Marlon Barrios-Solano, Harriet Macauley | Pair Dance, Johannes Birringer, Renana Raz, Mark Coniglio, and Marina Tsartsara.
