Online workshop with schools for detector building

Content: The online workshop will bring together all participating schools, where students and teachers will collaborate to build their own detectors with the support of physics teachers. Through an online platform, participants can ask questions, receive guidance, and troubleshoot issues in real time. The aim is to ensure that each school successfully builds their own working detector, while strengthening the collaborative learning experience between teachers and students. Realization: The workshop will be held via an online platform, providing real-time support for each school. Fit into bigger project idea: This output ensures that students are actively involved in the hands-on building process, bridging the gap between theory and practical application. It also solidifies the collaborative efforts of the V4 schools, strengthening cross-border educational networks. https://www.medgyessygimnazium.hu/visegrad%20fund

The Focused Off-Program (Workshops, Discussions, Professionals Meeting)

The focused part of the festival off-program is intended as a place where one not only socializes but also learns and receives feedback. The series of workshops covers the learning component of the focused off-program. These workshops will be led almost exclusively by theatre professionals from V4 countries. They will be open to all visitors who would like to learn some new theatre techniques. There will be up to 4 workshops during the festival with a great variety of specializations – e.g., movement, voice, or theoretical workshops. Such workshops with different focuses will create another semi-formal space for visitors to get to know each other, learn something new, exchange technical knowledge, and bring them together. The discussions cover the critical feedback component of the accompanying program. There will be up to three of them, and they aim to create a space in which the audience, professionals, and performers can discuss the previous day’s performances in the main program. This is always a unique opportunity for professionals as well as students to provide valuable feedback. These discussions will be chaired by our M.A. and Ph.D. students, who moderate these debates. They will gain in this way a valuable academic experience. The meeting of professionals then covers the socializing component. It will be a networking meeting of attending theatre professionals. Such a meeting contributes to greater networking among theatre professionals from the V4 countries. https://encounter.cz/

The V4 Specials – V4 Discussion and V4 Workshop

The ability to freely share information and discuss the issues of the day has always been one of the highest missions of the arts. That is why we see the V4 Discussion as one of the highlights of the festival. Through it, we try to contribute to such a reflection in the context of the problems plaguing the area closest to us, the V4 region (e.g., the issue of artistic and civic freedom and safety). At the moment we are still fine-tuning the specific form of the debate - i.e. whether it will be a classical panel debate with several panelists or whether this year we will adopt a different form (e.g., one speaker with a plenary lecture followed by a moderated debate). The V4 Workshop will work to counterbalance the more cerebral V4 Discussion. The workshop will take place over several days and will be open exclusively to the V4 students as a place to learn and network. We were lucky enough to already secure a facilitator for such a workshop who is also a representative of our partner institution FreeSZFE, Dávid Somló, a performance maker and sound artist. https://encounter.cz/
