Dance Hub residency presentation Cristina Bodnărescu and Anamaria Guguian at WASP

Cristina Bodnărescu and Anamaria Guguian are on a residency to work on their latest production "Digital Heaven". On October 28 they are presenting the result in a public showing.

This interacive show, with music by Ethics of Joy (Cristina Bodnărescu, George Urse) "explores the dialogue between the dancer and her digital double at the intersection and colliding of the two worlds. Adopting an aesthetic of bodily disappearance, in “Digital Heaven” the internal contradictions of identity are not resolved, but are made manifest.”

”Emphasising a certain metamorphosis between the visceral and the virtual bodies, the organic and the artificial, “Digital Heaven” explores the dialogue between the dancer and her digital double at the intersection and colliding of the two worlds. Adopting an aesthetic of bodily disappearance, in “Digital Heaven” the internal contradictions of identity are not resolved, but are made manifest.

Following a predetermined narrative path, but leaving space for human-computer improvisation, the choreographic performance raises questions regarding notions of body surface and double, by using interactive technologies such as projection mapping and gesture recognition.”
