@Disturbance is an interdisciplinary and experimental artistic residency and development programme, taking place at Ugly Duck. @Disturbance is a project supporting diversity, under-represented bodies and voices in the arts. It intends to challenge power dynamics, offering a platform for new representations of genders, bodies, identities and sexualities. This is a paid opportunity supported by Art Council England for LGBTQAI+ performers and video artists.

@Disturbance offers 3 LGBTQIA+ performance artists 1 week paid residency and sharing opportunity at Ugly Duck and mentorship with Physical Computing lecturer Robert Hall and Ugly Duck’s Curator and Creative Producer Deen Atger. This residency is an opportunity to develop a new or existing project, and an opportunity to adapt this project to a hybrid online and offline realm. The residency will culminate with one performance, open to industry people, and one performance open to the public. Both showcases will be live from our venue to a physical audience as well as online using the latest streaming equipment.

@Disturbance is also looking for video artists and digital artists as part of the physical and online performance. They will receive a paid fee for this sharing.
