When dance meets technology, a new language is born. Eve is a mix media project based on three experiences of EVR (Embodied Virtual Reality) and a live participative dance performance.
About
Eve watches us as we enter the room. She looks calm, but something about her is unsettling. For this primordial ritual, she is surrounded by three duets: spectator-participants sporting Oculus VR headsets and their dancer-partners. In this Embodied Virtual Reality performance, a participatory dialogue is created among real and virtual dancers. VR experiences are transported to unexpected geographies within 360 degree dance films and multisensory body ownership illusions, made visible via simultaneous projections to onlookers sitting around the room. How might it feel to slip into the skin of a dancer?
