N.I.P. collective, UK/NL/PT

N.I.P. is a distributed, interdisciplinary, mixed media research, touring and network space.

As an artist lead initiative, N.I.P. was established to explore and create opportunities for developing mixed media practices across the performing arts, engineering, visual art, music, computer science, sound art, installation and fine art.

The collective meet at certain times over the year, to share, co-develop and discuss ideas, participate in workshops, festivals and programmes, give talks and workshops, participate in residency programmes and perform live work and installations. The current focus within the group is on gesture and movement based interfaces, a theme which has also inspired the UM festival.

The current N.I.P. artists collective include:
Kathy Hinde, Tom Bugs, Torsten Lauschmann, Teresa Dillon (UK) Ivan Franco Rudolfo Quintas, AndrÃ© GonÃ§alves, Laetita Morais, (PT) Sonia Cillari, Damian Stewart, Tom Verbruggen (NL)

Past participants have included: Isaac Caarlos (NL) and AndrÃ© Sier (PT)

Date/Time: 20.06/21.30
Location: EstÃºdio Bomba Suicida, Rua dos Caetanos, 26 [Bairro Alto]
