The aim of the project "Communities and Artistic Participation in Hybrid Environment" (CAPHE) is to investigate the possibility of establishing of an enhanced model of interaction and somatic participation between artists and communities coming from different cultural backgrounds, both traditional and virtual ones, in hybrid environment including physical and virtual layers. By this mean we will develop the concept of Virtual Reality Participation building the integrated framework for Virtual Reality mediated consensus and community in a form of an aesthetic dialogue aimed at layering and investigating aesthetic experiences through VR technology. The project's physical mobilities will be directed towards research on communities, arts and participation in contemporary , digital time in countries involved in the project: Poland, Portugal, Italy, Greece, UK and Kenya. In addition to activities realized during the mobilities like workshops, trainings, field research and interviews, the cooperation between partners in the CAPHE project will be continued during the whole project in the virtual space and online. This will be achieved by use of modes of telepresence, Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) technologies such as the Altspace VR platform. The project's team will be engaged and will operate in experimental, hybrid environment to stimulate and research the processes of social-artistic interaction. Our process will engage artists, communities and researchers from six countries and on two continents (Europe and Africa).
