| Description: | A speculative performance piece exploring the intersections between the body-based practices promoted by Grotowski’s Theatre Laboratory and Haraway’s feminist theory, Dancing at the Edge of the World is based on a multimedia non-linear narrative that shifts the focus of knowledge production for AI-design by rooting it in the experience of the body. Biometric information, harvested from the moving bodies of the performers in real-time is translated to sonified cues and becomes entangled with the performance scores (voice & movement). The performers’ bodies are generating traces in space, a living cartography of their capabilities and limitations. The technology becomes a medium for interconnecting, as well as for interrogating the embodied agencies engaged in a ritual act (of survival). |
