A DRIVE TOWARDS BRAIN SYNCHRONISATION AND COLLECTIVE MOTION.
-No dance or tech background is required to participate-
Our workshops bring the creativity of dance together with innovative neurosensing technologies. Through the use of a Brain-Computer interface, participants in the workshop are able to interact with unique audiovisuals from their synergic motion and the corresponding brain activity.
This art-tech workshop mixes the physical and digital into an immersive phygital experience: Such a journey through dance to the inner self and to the resonance with other’s brains has been designed to develop the potential we all hold for creativity and collective work. It builds on participants’ intuitive ways of interconnecting.
ABOUT
How it works?
It begins by warming up, stretching and learning basic elements of Contemporary Dance. Improvisation and collective motion are here key elements. Participants are then fitted with the neuro-wearable and split into teams to develop different situational scenes, experiencing immersive sensations - as for example, being into the element of water. In such dynamics, participants get to interact / react to one another and the audiovisual landscape, generating a circular phenomena of input and reward. At the end of the session, the different groups refine and perform their creations, whilst modifying in real time the audiovisual sets. As an internal feedback for the creation process we record and discuss the impros.
Duration: 6:30 - 9:30pm
