TRACTION, a Horizon 2020 funded project aims to use new ideas of co-creation and participatory art to involve citizens in the creative process of opera.

The TRACTION project goals are to:

• To empower people and communities in three trials: inner-city Barcelona, a youth prison in Leiria and rural communities in Ireland.
• To embrace new technologies in order to establish an effective participatory production workflow and to explore novel audio-visual art representation formats.
• To provoke an impact on the relationship between opera and digital technology.
