A fragmented vision of the body moving through time, this animation explores timelines of passing, meeting and physically poetic moments of contact. Sometimes the constant notion of moving forward through time can blind us from the fickle present and the freedom to become lost within it.

The piece explores choreographic prompts and improvisation using 3D digital motion capture and animation technology.

“ViMotion” - 2018
around 1:00 p.m.
ViMotion is an interactive dance show which overturns the traditional scheme where dancers enact a choreography over a fixed musical base. In ViMotion, with their movements on stage dancers are directly influencing projected images and played music, thus creating a strong connection between visuals, music and dance.
The bodies of the dancers and their movements are tracked by an infrared camera for real time graphics.
