Dear Colleagues,
The Chair Election of OISTAT Research commission will be held at the Research Commission meeting from 12:00 to 14:00 on June 14, 2019 at Studio ALTA during the Prague Quadrennial in Prague, Czech Republic.
OISTAT Research focuses on exchanging ideas, sharing innovations, encouraging experimentation and promoting collaborative international research around history, theory and practice in professions that support the development of design, space and technology for live performance.
We would like to thank the current Interim Chair David Wilmore, for his achievement and commitment that opened up various possibilities for the OISTAT Research Commission. We hope that the succeeding Chair will lead the OISTAT Research Commission in the following four years with equal success.
