INTERSECTA is a pilot residency connecting performing arts, immersive media and cultural research. It explores how migration, identity and digital transformation can reshape artistic practice through embodied knowledge and XR prototyping. Residents co-develop experimental formats linking performance, AR/XR and community-driven inquiry, with process-oriented showings and a living research archive.
Reduced travel footprint and eco-conscious production. Multilingual access (EN/ES, with Tagalog when relevant). Gender-balanced selection and transparent resource distribution. Activities designed to welcome underrepresented voices and strengthen social cohesion.
Outputs include prototypes, immersive demos and a research archive that can be reused by cultural institutions and educational contexts. The residency models replicable practices at the intersection of embodied methods and digital experimentation.
