TURN UP 2022 is postponed to fall 2022.
TURN UP Multimedia Festival is an annual technology and arts festival which promotes Equality, Culture-Connecting, and Interdisciplinary Collaboration, hosted at the University of Arizona College of Fine Arts. We encourage partnership between different fields, cultures, and genders. To accomplish these goals, TURN UP includes multiple lectures, presentations, and master classes from leading artists from different fields, different circumstances, and different geographic areas, and culminates with five multimedia concerts that include the works of select artists.
This year, the fifth year of the festival, we have invited renowned Greek visual artist Georgios Cherouvim and young Chinese American composer/data instrument designer Chi Wang. We are also featuring performances by NOISE Ensemble and Faculty Artists of the University of Arizona Fred Fox School of Music. Because of the pandemic, TURN UP 2020 was modified to one online concert. We are planning to program the rest of the selected pieces on TURN UP 2022. We also launched another international call-for-submissions, which received two hundred and sixteen submissions from around the globe. We encourage all the selected artists come to Tucson to participate in the festival, interact with our students, and share their art work with the community.
At the festival, the College of Fine Arts will collaborate with the School of Information, and New York University Holodeck Project, which is an interdisciplinary project involving computer science, music technology, health-informatics, gaming, digital media, design engineering, and educational technology. We will present a collaborative concert of live local performers, live and remote dancers, electroacoustic music, visual art, and distributed music. The mission of this project is to connect artists and performers from all over the world together to collaborate on multidisciplinary performances.
We will TURN UP the visibility of underrepresented artists and bring true equality to arts and technology.
