Dance Films Association (DFA) and Earthdance Creative Living Project (Earthdance) announce the IMAGINE Festival: Film, Technology, and the Body in Action. IMAGINE will include a weekend of immersive film screenings, body and technology-based workshops, dialogue sessions and video installations on the Earthdance campus, an artist-run center, that includes dance studios, work laboratories, and unconventional performance spaces located on 125 acres in the Berkshire hills of Western Massachusetts.
IMAGINE Festival explores relationships between technology and the human body in action. IMAGINE will be preceded by two residencies at Earthdance for one to two weeks in the spring and fall. Spring Residencies will be focused on dance film and performance with projection; Fall Residencies (leading right up to the Festival) will be more installation and immersive based. IMAGINE seeks projects that engage in questions or criticisms around recent technological advancements, exploring ways to utilize technology to strengthen connections between people, communities, and the natural environment.

Retreats and private events can last anywhere from one day to one month, or can occur at multiple times throughout the course of the year.
