| Synopsis

Following the Panorama Special Program on 3. November, the festival will kick off with an innovative panel discussion around Web 3.0 and decentralization. TANZAHOi will bring together artists from the fields of dance film, AR, VR and AI to illuminate the concept of decentralized curation and how it can effect festival organization and open possibilities for creation.

Web 3.0 represents the next generation of the internet, where power is no longer in the hands of a few centralized platforms, but distributed across a decentralized network. Here, from a creative perspective, artists and audiences alike can participate. Web 3.0 is based-around the blockchain, a technology that enables transparent transactions and offers protection between exchanging parties. Like open-source-philosophy, this phase of the internet encourages all users to take part equally – or perhaps more democratically – in the creation and management of content.

TANZAHOi is interested in challenging the boundaries of what can be achieved through collaboration and decentralization, offering new perspectives on the potential of digital dance and festival organization. Invited to the panel of is a mix of Web3.0 experts and artists creating work in tandem with this technology. The panel will be open for audience questions and all are welcome to participate.
