Codelining (Coding + Redlining) explores new media tools (motion capture, wireless sensory, projection mapping, etc.) to explore redlining, gentrification, the digital divide, and the real or perceived barriers between artists, technologists, and communities of color. Artistic Director Raissa Simpson developed this multimedia dance between her company and the technology collective... “re inventing the real” This year marks AFF‘s first community collaboration with Dance Initiative. PUSH Dance Company is in residence at The Launchpad in Carbondale 5/29 -6/4 to continue to develop CODELINING and offer educational outreach. CLICK HERE for more details |

When someone treats me
like a piece of shit… I bring out my Academy Award. It has something to say. It’s saying I’m right. 
Jay is the Oscar-winning actor taking the lead in a new play that connects with his Irish roots.
Leigh is the ambitious director who will do anything to get noticed. And Ruth is the Northern Irish playwright whose voice must be heard. The stage is set for great success but when the three meet to discuss the play’s challenges and provocations a line is crossed, and the heated discussion quickly escalates, exploring consent, abuses of power and the confusions of cultural identity. |
