MEDIATHEK

In its working area Archive and Practice, the International Theatre Institute Germany (ITI) constantly combines questions of practical audiovisual documentation. Within this frame, the cooperation ITI ♥ MOTION BANK has been developed and implemented by ITI in collaboration with the Motion Bank team as part of the program "Kulturerbe Tanz”. ITI ♥ MOTION BANK has an aim that is two-fold: to explore how a video annotation tool can relate to dance artists in their creative work, and how it can be put into practice in the archival (data) environment as well. 

Greek choreographer Eleonora Siarava was working as a residency artist in STUDIO2 from 23.09. until 29.09.2024 as part of the cooperation ITI ♥ MOTION BANK. For the duration of one week, Eleonora tried out the practical applicability of video annotation in the processes of research, production and documentation of artistic work, from the perspective of a choreographer. The residency was process-oriented, emphasizing experimentation and research without pressure for a final presentation. 

During the residency, a public event took place in the form of a relaxed discussion with:
• Eleonora Siarava, the residency artist exploring the Motion Bank's video annotation tool in her choreographic work
• David Rittershaus, the director of Motion Bank
• team of the Media Library for Dance and Theatre
