The Event
CRCI Space Camp 2026 was a first-of-its-kind, intimate gathering exploring ecologies of care at the intersection of space, the moving body, gravity, and critical inquiry.
Presented by the Conference for Research on Choreographic Interfaces (CRCI), housed at Brown University, and produced end-to-end by Consciously Produced, the event was held across Brooklyn over four days. It brought together artist residents, facilitators, and a curated cohort in an interdisciplinary environment unlike anything that exists in either the arts or space research worlds.

The CP Difference
This wasn't a conference, a workshop series, or a residency. It was all of those things simultaneously, at the intersection of dance, embodied research, and outer space.
CP had to understand and embody the research, then build an experience that balanced academic rigor, physical play, and genuine artistic inquiry without collapsing any of them, resulting in grounded, intentional, and people centered production.
