  • Mapping Smart Cities in the Europe
    DIRECTORATE GENERAL FOR INTERNAL POLICIES POLICY DEPARTMENT A: ECONOMIC AND SCIENTIFIC POLICY Mapping Smart Cities in the EU STUDY Abstract This report was commissioned to provide background information and advice on Smart Cities in the European Union (EU) and to explain how existing mechanisms perform. In exploring this, a working definition of a Smart City is established and the cities fitting this definition across the Member States are mapped. An analysis of the objectives and Europe 2020 targets of Smart City initiatives finds that despite their early stage of development, Smart City objectives should be more explicit, well defined and clearly aligned to city development, innovation plans and Europe 2020 in order to be successful.

  • Nordic Countries
    2017 THE NORDIC COUNTRIES MADE IN 2017 NO BORDERS We in the arts can take centre stage and show that the ability to collaborate is one of the finest things in humanity, and is crucial for our survival. The Nordic countries have a long-standing tradition of working together, and the MADE IN project, its catalogue and website, is a small yet great example of that. Artists, leaders and promoters in the performing arts from five countries have come together to jointly present their information on what they are all doing right now and in the near future. This is the fifth edition, and for the first time, we’ve decided not to list the catalogue by country, as we chose to fully commit to our manifesto for no borders between Nordic performing arts organisations. You are all welcome to start your communication with any of us, as in front of you is a network of fearless artists not unlike their Viking ancestors.

    Press Release FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: March 6, 2012 The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts announces Nordic Cool 2013 International Festival of Theater, Dance, Music, Visual Arts, Literature, Design, and Film To Highlight Culture of Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden As Well as Territories of Greenland, the Faroe and Åland Islands In Ticketed and Free Events Throughout the Kennedy Center February 19 – March 17, 2013 (WASHINGTON, D.C.)—From February 19 to March 17, 2013, the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts presents an unprecedented festival highlighting the culture of the Nordic countries— Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, Sweden—and the territories of Greenland, the Faroe, and Åland Islands. Continuing the Center’s tradition of producing renowned international celebrations by curating traditional and contemporary expressions of theater, dance, music, visual arts, literature, design, and film, this Festival will also explore the interplay of themes central to Nordic life, such as nature, technological innovation, environmental sustainability, entrepreneurial spirit, and youth culture. Seeking to answer the question of what is “Nordic,” this Festival aspires to offer clarity on a region of the world whose dynamic culture and creative economy have seemed elusive to many, particularly in America. By exploring the region’s cultural diversity, the Kennedy Center aims to foster an appreciation of the Nordic heritage, and an understanding of the region’s emerging global influence. In addition to the performing arts, New Nordic Cuisine will be highlighted in the Kennedy Center’s restaurants and demonstrations by the region’s renowned chefs will be featured on the Millennium Stage.

  • About the Workshops and Contributors
    Workshops You can participate in one or two workshops depending on the length on the workshop(s). There are 3 hours available for workshops in total. Apply to workhops in the registration form. Please read guide thoroughly before applying. Samuli Nordberg & Tiina Syrjä (3 hours) Xtreme - Pedagogical practises for understanding personal and performative boundaries. What is an extreme experience for the performer and on the other hand for the spectator? During this workshop, we will discuss how a performer can become aware of his/her boundaries. What can be considered extreme in the body/public space/community and which extreme actions and situations chosen by this particular group we would like to try out? We will approach the concept of extreme through various exercises, and we will explore the experiences from both the observer’s and the author's point of view. We'll seek together a physical breakpoint, learn how to scream safely and exchange with each other actions which feel personally extreme. The work is based on experiences from Xtreme workshops for actors on bachelor level. Anne Södergren (1,5 hour) Changing Perspective The workshop is based on a method developed by Anne, using three different ”rooms” where the students focus on and develop singing technique, performing and reflection respectively. In the Craft Room the student trains in different singing skills and exercises for a sustainable voice. In the Laboratory Room the students explore improvisation, text and acting skills transferred according to voice. In the Reflection Room the students have the possibility to reflect and work with an awareness of personal and artistic choices in relation to critical perspectives such as gender and other norm issues and discuss this according to the singing voice.
