The theatre company La Fura dels Baus (established in 1979) started a creative foundation Fundacion Epica to transfer -as informal training- the lessons learnt during the many decades of organising successful and engaging performances. Epica developed and tested creative interaction methodology and their physical venue in Badalona (Spain) will host the proposed European Performing Science Night. The European Performing Science Night (EPSN) puts forth a science- expanding methodology based on the combination of scientific excellence and performing arts as generators of faked realities and engagement. Through co-designed preparatory work leading to a Night of Performing Science, the event will bring researchers closer to the general public (and vice versa). It will increase awareness of what is research, its function in a democratic society, and its benefits for a diverse Europe. EPSN proposes a wide range of innovation activities, with a view to supporting the public recognition of researchers, their work, and the value it brings to society. EPSN will in itself be a scientific event, where research groups will deploy experiments with a broad spectrum of civil society and science both online and face to face. Audiences will perform, in artistic terms, as subjects themselves in experiments, taking part in both the tests during the event and expected results in the performaforum. EPSN will test and demonstrate new methodological approaches to bring researchers closer to the public through an innovative language based on the performing arts and new language tools for researchers, that is, 1 training to equip researchers with new tools to deal with scientific communication; 2 the realization of artistic co-creation based on the work of researchers to show the diversity of science and its impact on the daily lives of citizens, and 3 a round table -performaforum- after the performance experience to promote open science and help stimulate interest in research careers. ver más
