`Pointe to Point’, the third Asia-Europe Dance Forum, was an initiative by the Asia-Europe Foundation held from 6th-13th September, 2005 in Tokyo, Japan. The thinking behind the programme was to emphasise the significance of dance as a medium of communication that reflects constantly changing society, thus, raising and articulating issues to encourage cultural dialogue and exchange.
Twenty young artists from 16 countries; Cambodia, China, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Greece, Hungary, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Philippines, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia and Thailand dealt with the theme, ”localism” to explore the amalgamation of dance and new media.
Curated by Naoto lina, together with Japanese choreographer Anna, German's duo walkscreen, and Japan’s RE (Responsive Environment were the artistic collaborators for this programme.
Vanini Belarmino was the Project Lead and Managing Editor of the publication.
