In folkcore 5.0 the artists Hannah Wimmer and Maximilian Prag collaborated on a realtime multimedia performance shown in Tartu Estonia at the European Capitals of Culture Family Meeting.
In their research, inspired by a former project and master thesis of Hannah Wimmer, they worked with the queering of Austrian folkdance through different lenses.
Through methods of queering, the duo updated elements and reconstructed traditional elements of music, costume and dance and present them in a new media driven performance.
