From Recoil Performance Group:

Two dancers and their digital reproduction are the scenographic frame of this humorous and emotional portrait of human relations. Based on rules and structured in a game like manner, the installation makes way for a playful dialog between the man, woman and the digital "footprints" they leave behind.

You can learn about the technical design for this interactive performance environment on the website for video designer Ole Kristensen.
