Centre for Contemporary and Digital Performance -- http://www.brunel.ac.uk/about/acad/sa/artresearch/boilerhouse
was created in autumn 2006 and is now recognized as a Brunel University Research Centre.
The polycentric emphases in the new research environment rest on a distinctive transdisciplinary vision which fuses artistic performance, theatre and live art with new media technologies and creative software writing/engineering. Open to partnerships in research collaboration with others in the School of Arts, the School of Engineering and Design, BITLab, and institutions elsewhere in the UK and abroad, the core group activities centre on the integration of creative arts, performance writing, and performance design with digital technologies. investigating new and exciting opportunities for working at the frontiers of art, science, and technology, where new modes of performance and interaction are invented.
The core research group in the Centre and its partners seek to explore and to help define the future of performance art in its intersections with digital cultures, and with new media technologies and communications in the creative industries. Our wider research goal is to explore the limits of what is possible in technologically sophisticated media and performance arts, both from an embodied performance art and an engineering viewpoint. Combining physical peformance and site specific art with new virtual performance modalities in eScience, engineering, and theory, the Centre will drive a series of projects over the next three years which continue to build our national and international relations with other research ventures into digital cultures.
The Centre expects to celebrate the opening of the newly expanded BOILERHAUS lab facilities in the autumn of 2007.
Prof. Johannes Birringer is director of the planning stages and research architecture of the new Centre.

... http://people.brunel.ac.uk/dap -- Design And Performance Lab -- DAP-Lab is a cross-media lab exploring convergences between performance, telematics, textile/fashion design and movement, clothing and choreography, film/photography and interactive design.
Founded in 2004, the Lab is now housed at Brunel University and continues research partnerships with multiple sites in the USA, Japan, and Brasil which have formed the ADaPT network on performance telematics since 2000. It also connects ongoing research investigations and productions in dance (Digital Cultures) with performance/science collaborations (TransNet), and brings these partnerships into knowledge transfer with performance, multimedia and electronics engineering research at Brunel University's School of Arts and School of Engineering and Design (BITlab) and at Nottingham Trent University's School of Art and Design (Fashion).
