After three months of setting up and previews, CRIV is now entering its first season, marked by the launch of "Research in Residence". The programme weaves together ten diverse research methodologies in an adventurous investigation of voice, movement, sound, and light.

The programme opens with two spatial investigations: Federica D’aversa’s creative integration of dance and sound, followed by Pietro Trallori’s exploration of our sound system’s architectural possibilities. A journey into the power of collective vocality emerges through Meike Clarelli’s double choir Le Core and Patryk Matela’s vision of human beatboxing as social practice at Warsaw’s Beatbox Institute. To follow, Thollem McDonas investigates the intersection of improvisation, composition, and activism, while Camilla Crispino delves into the field of movement studies through collective practice-as-research. Next up, praised voice researcher and artist Imke McMurtrie expands vocal awareness through embodied educational practices, preceding choreographer Gloria Dorliguzzo’s and CRIV founder Francesco Venturi’s interdiscplinary research into opera. The programme culminates in two studies in multimodality: composer Alvaro Nuñez Carbullanca’s site-specific vocal composition and Matias Iaccarino’s study of light design for voice performance, advancing CRIV’s technical capabilities.
