Glow
In an entrancing digital other world a single body unfolds. It transforms.It mutates. It evolves into unfamiliar, sensual and grotesque creature states.
GlowChunky Move - is a groundbreaking collaboration between Artistic Director Gideon Obarzanek and German interactive software engineer Frieder Weiß. Together they unleash a brave new world of mindbending technology and pulsing choreography. The floor is the screen. The audience watches from above. The solo performer emerges in an intimate geometric dance. The motion of the human body triggers sound, light and animation in real-time. At first, the dancer seems to control the kaleidoscope. But, as body, light, movement and graphics meld into one organic entity, dimensions are blurred. Shadows arise to stalk their creator. Light dissects space. Form confounds vision. Technology, humanity and imagination meet with beguiling consequences in this unique digital dance encounter.
