SIX COMMISSIONS. SIX DIFFERENT ANSWERS. ONE FESTIVAL

What happens when bodies meet technology? You decide!

Introducing OOTFest27: Where We Are… six paid commissions for bold ideas that push the boundaries of physical and digital performance.

Returning in May 2027, IJAD’s live-hybrid performance and technology festival asks one urgent question:

What does it mean to be present now?

Bringing together XR, MR, AI, Human Bodies, Screens, Spaces and Audiences.
We’re looking for original work that explores what happens when physical and digital worlds meet. Not technology for technology’s sake, but ideas that challenge perspectives, question who technology is designed for, and imagine new ways of connecting.

Could your work be part of OOTFest27? We are now opening the call for the artists who will help answer that question

đź“… Deadline: 23:59, Sunday 25 October 2026.

OOTFEST27 - PAID OPPORTUNITY

IJAD and OOT are so excited to invite artists and creative technologists to apply for the next OOTFest — our biannual performing arts & technology festival.

WHERE WE ARE

Where We Are is an exploration of presence, resilience and imagination in an age of technological acceleration.

In a world where technology is accelerating faster than ever, what does it mean to be present?

Where are we physically, digitally and emotionally? How are new technologies changing the way we connect, create, perform and imagine? And what happens to our sense of self, community and possibility as the boundaries between the human and technological continue to shift?

We’re looking for professional-level live and hybrid work from artists and creative technologists working with VR, AR, AI, motion capture and other immersive technologies.

đź“… May 2027 | In person + online via Open Online Theatre
🎟️ £1,650 bursary + 60% of ticket sales
⏰ Deadline for application: 29 October 2026

If your work sits at the intersection of performance, technology and the human experience, we want to hear from you.

We are excited to be at Ars Electronica Ars Electronica this week.

Join us on Fri 11 Sep 2026 16:30 to 18:30 when we explore the question “How can individual movement signatures be mapped, recognised and predicted?”

How can a dancing dialogue with the HAMLET Generative AI tools: Dance Style Analysis and Generation Enabler and the Music-to-Movement Enabler lead to new ways of inhabiting and discovering our bodies through movement, of relating to each other and to the tangibly physical and intangible, intuitively intelligible latent spaces into which we are immersed? The workshop invites participants to dance dialogues with(out) AI.
