[RADICAL] SIGNS OF LIFE
AND bring an expressive virtual world populated by corporeal sounds and generative imagery from dancers’ bodies to a wider audience.
[radical] signs of life is one of the first large-scale uses of biotechnology to integrate networked bodies and interactive dance.
Through responsive dance, [radical] signs of life externalizes the mind’s non-hierarchical distribution of thought. Music is generated from the dancers‘ muscles and blood flow via biophysical sensors that capture sound waves from the performers’ bodies. This data triggers complex neural patterns to be projected onto multiple screens as 3D imagery. As the audience interacts with the images produced, they enter into a dialogue with the dancers.
