A
n annual program by the Dance Committee of the Jakarta Arts Council, JDMU 2020, will be held entirely online. Unlike in the past years, it will combine two programs.
"We integrate Choreo-Lab, a process-oriented program, with creative product exhibition Jakarta Dance Extravaganza," said committee chair Yola Yulfianti at a virtual press conference.
"JDMU 2020 will be the embryo for a larger Jakarta Dance Extravaganza to accommodate the creative dance industry and Chore-Lab as an international contemporary dance festival next year,” she added.
In collaboration with art and cultural center Indonesia Kaya and event organizer BOOW Live, the Jakarta Dance Extravaganza (JDE) is to be presented as a direct-to-video entertainment event comprising six performances that link together under the main theme Kembaran Jiwa (Twin Flames).
Each video is produced by film director Aji Rahmansyah, director of photography Bella Panggabean and producer Bayu Pontiagust.
Set to be live-streamed on the YouTube account Indonesia Kaya from Dec. 11 to 13, JDE is to include five young choreographers of different dance genres and a special collaboration by dancer Josh Marcy, poet/musician Reda Gaudiamo and stage director Rusdy Rukmarata.
