Interesting that the deadline is so far out — gives artists plenty of time to actually develop something meaningful rather than rushing an application. The co-dramaturgical angle really speaks to me, since audience feedback can be such a wild card in circus where the physical risk already creates tension. Speaking of testing tools, I've been using the mouse scroll test onlione at inputbench.com to check my scroll wheel jitter before online feedback sessions, and it's surprisingly handy for making sure my setup isn't glitching when I'm trying to take notes on performances. Anyway, curious if anyone here has applied to a project like this before — the three-residency structure sounds intense but rewarding.
