SYNCHRONICITY – Pierre Engelhard
7.00pm
Using a generative sound system, two dancers generate unique sounds with their movements. As they coordinate their bodies through sonic feedback, they strive for harmony without seeing each other dance, nor hearing their own generated sounds. By examining their partner’s sound through spontaneous movements, dancers will try to synchronise their movements as they generate new sounds, entering a looping chain of reaction. SYNCHRONICITY searches for human unity.

Non-Player Character is an original musical theatre piece performed live inside web-based virtual reality.

The work seeks to challenge and explore several tiers of audience experience and participation.
