When it comes to designing websites for performing arts and multidisciplinary centers, the scope is as diverse as the content they deliver. These centers often cater to a wide array of artistic genres, from theater to visual arts to educational programming, each requiring its own digital space and unique experience.
🔑 Challenges & Opportunities: With a large amount of dynamic content: event schedules, artist bios, galleries, educational resources, and more, crafting a seamless user experience (UX) is crucial. Beyond that, we must also consider the diverse audience:
🎟️ Visitors & Patrons: Looking for events, purchasing tickets, or accessing information on accessibility.
🎨 Artists & Performers: Showcasing their work and engaging with new audiences.
🎓 Students & Educators: Accessing workshops, research materials, or community programs.
By combining user-focused design with intelligent content management, we help these centers stay vibrant and welcoming to all. A well-crafted digital experience isn’t just a website, it’s a virtual extension of the center’s community. 🌐
If you're a performing arts or multidisciplinary organization looking to elevate your digital presence, let's talk about how we can design a web experience that meets your unique needs.

National Arts Theatre, the DEN of creative performances in the heart of Lagos. I went there with family as a child. I have seen Olu Jacobs, Joke Silva, RMD, Oga Bello, Aluwe, Baba Sala and many actors on stage. There were musical and cultural performances as well, King Sunny Ade, Lijadu sisters and others representing different genre of music and tribes in Nigeria 🇳🇬.
Performer's Rights are hardly discussed in Nigeria 🇳🇬. Most discussion focus on Copyright with little or nothing on related or neighbouring rights. Expressions of Folklore and Performances are regarded as related or neighbouring rights.
World Intellectual Property Organisation (WIPO) defines:
'Related rights, also referred to as neighboring rights, protect the legal interests of certain persons and legal entities that contribute to making works available to the public or that produce subject matter which, while not qualifying as works under the copyright systems of all countries, contains sufficient creativity or technical and organizational skill to justify recognition of a copyright-like property right. The law of related rights deems that the productions that result from the activities of such persons and entities merit legal protection as they are related to the protection of works of authorship under copyright. Some laws make clear, however, that the exercise of related rights should leave intact, and in no way affect, the protection of copyright.'
So related rights is an extention of copyright but not copyright. It is a place for performers to seek protection.
The Copyright Act of Nigeria 🇳🇬 2022 has provisions on performance. LIVE PERFORMANCE.
The next assignment will be on performance and it is dedicated to a friend that recently passed on. A huge loss to academia.

In art and art criticism, form and content are considered distinct aspects of a work of art. Master Katsumi Sakakura to me embodies perfectly the Japanese concept that the form is the content.
Art Labo Europe is very happy to collaborate with choreographer and Geibu master Katsumi Sakakura on international art projects.
Meet the team at Fringe Festival 2024, Istanbul Sept 17th.

What will happen if the heads of Slovakia's largest cultural institutions, the National Theatre and the National Gallery, are dismissed by President Robert #Fico and his nationalist Culture Minister Martina Šimkovičová? Then we will have Serbian conditions. How is the scene in #Belgrade doing? Here is the report: https://lnkd.in/exJYbw3u
