RESEARCH GROUP FOR TECHNOLOGICAL POETICS IN DANCE

Creation on Monday 14 and Tuesday 15 September 2007

Within the context of the festival Seconde nature *

In stark contrast to the images usually associated with her home country, the Brazilian Ivani Santana is presenting The I, the crystal and the water, combining dance and new media. The interaction between the performers, live DJs, videos and the audience produces a kind of poetry. Sensors attached to the dancers’ bodies trigger a stream of visual effects, while the sound environment promises to take our senses on a journey

As a dancer and choreographer, Ivani Santana is fascinated by the media and new technology, and she leads the Research Group for Technological Poetics in Dance.
