CODA21 is a pilot initiative that supports dialogue, research, and collaboratively designed experiments between UCLA’s Center for the Art of Performance and leading research cen- ters and labs across campus. Collaborating labs include Denise Cai and Silvalab, a leading neuroscience research lab studying molecular and cellular cognition; Hakwan Lau and the Consciousness & Metacognition Lab; the Tennenbaum Center for the Biology of Creativity; and the Design Media Arts Lab.

Informing CODA21’s design is the belief that the students at UCLA represent the conditions emblematic of society at large. Economic anxiety, homogeneous living arrangements, and media saturation imposing gender and racial stereotypes have seriously eroded the acade- my’s critical role in fostering a pluralistic, tolerant, progressive, and socially interdependent community. Curriculum is increasingly limited in its ability to play this historic role. The remaining antidote is a thoughtfully curated arts presenting program like CAP UCLA, an interdisciplinary learning experience offering students and the extended audience exposure, through live performance to artists who represent the diversity of traditions, ethnicities, gender roles, and aesthetics reflective of the demographic terrain in which we all work and live. Through its experimental collaboration, CODA21 seeks to confirm, amplify, and enhance this crucial role.
