Description
Two dancers/performers interact with an audio-visual environment. Their movement data control cameras, microphones, and architectural projections of 3D representations of each performance venue. Four scenes, made up of choreography and media, play on the theme of the relationship to time, memory and space. An allegory of the multiple transformations of bodies invaded by technology, where the manifold personalities of augmented dancers disrupt their perception of themselves and their body schema.
