Tandem Hellerau-Dnipropetrovsk is the initial project to launch a long-term collaboration in the field of virtual environments based on Motion-Sensing1technology developed by TMA Hellerau. Kvartira aimed to develop this technology in Dnipropetrovsk in order to create a sustainable laboratory for experiments and projects. Regular workshops are arranged and joint sessions for Ukrainian and German artists are held to work on projects, performances, and installations in Ukraine and elsewhere.
