Na blogu publikujeme teoretické reflexe aktivit Centra choreografického rozvoje SE.S.TA. Ve spolupráci s umělci z oblasti tance a souvisejících oborů shromažďujeme a reflektujeme materiál v naší dynamicky se rozvíjející profesi. Snažíme se porozumět tématům a fenoménům, které ovlivňují uvažování umělců a jejich uměleckou tvorbu. A tak obohatit kolektivní znalosti našeho oboru.

The centre for choreographic development Se.s.ta within its residency program in the castle Žďár nad Sázavou established last year a cooperation with a new partner institution - centre for contemporary art and residency house Meetfactory in Prague. Both institutions are hosting artists, choreographers, thinkers, performers, musicians, writers and people with interest to explore their research in the city of Prague and in the bucolic industrial environment of baroque castle in Žďár nad Sázavou in Czech republic in the frame of newly established residency program Choreographic studio. During November 2018 Swedish choreographer based in Germany Else Tunemyr was the first resident who took part in both residencies.
