Event Description

"Timings, an Internet Dance" joins together dancers in three locations: Tokyo, Champaign, and Dekalb, IL, for an experimental dance fantasy on the idea of timing, and the role it plays in our lives. The performance features motion-capture control of 3D avatars, real-time live streaming and recorded video, and live electronic music. Many innovative technologies are being used, some of which have been developed specifically for this performance.

The performance will be within the computer game platform known as Unity, which has never been tried before. New motion capture recording and playback software for the Microsoft Kinect camera has been developed by UI doctoral student Tony Reimer. This allows for real-time control of 3D characters within the Unity environment, as well as playback of live-recorded gesture loops. The loops play at the same time as the live dancing, giving the audience an experience of different time levels at the same moment.

WE LIVE WITHIN AN UNSTABLE LANDSCAPE

This is a social networking website connecting people concerned about innovation and experimentation on art, dance, embodiment, cognition, science, networks, post-humanism, media and the unstable landscape of contemporary culture and life.

We are in a transitional phase and refocusing the network with a broader interdisciplinary framework. It will reflect a contemporary community interacting and embedded unstablelandscape.

This network is maintained and administrated by Marlon Barrios Solano as an independent art/curatorial/social innovation project.
