Interactive Performance: Chunky Move's Glow

Chunky Move's artistic director Gideon Obarzanek choreographed the interactive performance "Glow." Software developer Frieder Weiss collaborated on this project.

Beneath the glow of a sophisticated video tracking system, a lone organic being mutates in and out of human form into unfamiliar, sensual and grotesque creature states... Utilising the latest in interactive video technologies a digital landscape is generated in real time in response to the dancer's movement. The body's gestures are extended by and in turn manipulate the video world that surrounds it, rendering no two performances exactly the same.
