Is there life after DAI? Maja Renn (DAI, 2016) writes us: "I thought you may enjoy hearing about this collaboration between two alumni of your Roaming Academy. Years after graduating Savannah Theis (DAI, 2017) and I finally found an opportunity to work together on a larger project. Our performance "Performers Rule: KEEP IN TOUCH" will premiere this Friday (June 18, 2021) at the Schauspielhaus Zürich. It carries many elements of our researches as well as collaborative approaches we have learned during our time at the DAI." DAI writes: " You are absolutely right, Maja, we are delighted to hear from you and we hope this announcement reaches all of our Zürich based friends".

Rana Hamadeh (DAI, 2009) is the winner of one of the 3 Grants for Media Art 2021 of the Foundation of Lower Saxony at the Edith-Russ-Haus. The Jury, consisting among others of Cosmin Costinas and Emily Pethick, was particularly interested in Rana's attempt to rework historical materials to address contemporary questions and, while doing so, to experiment with visual languages to establish a new vocabulary connecting new technologies and mythologies. She will develop her proposed work, Just Machines, a multichannel video installation, throughout 2021 as part of the umbrella project The Destiny Project.
