project description:

This research commission from the group kondition pluriel is directed by two Canada-based artists who are working with dance and new technology. Their project schème II is a physical platform for experimental, performative research.

This choreographic installation takes the form of a performance arena equipped with a variety of technological tools specifically developed for the project. It introduces an expressive data acquisition system, two custom-made wireless sensor boxes mounted on the dancers and moving projections in the space of the performance. Sensors and feedback mechanisms submitting data to the MAX-programming environment allow the performers to navigate through the virtual space, and to generate video images and soundscapes. This piece also uses live cameras to enable the movements of the performers to trigger the recording and mixing of images in real-time. schème II provides a time and space situation where the performer and the technological environment interact with each other forming an intelligent space.

biography:

Marie-Claude Poulin: artistic director/choreographer/performer
Contemporary dance trained, danced among others with Meg Stuart (US/Belgium), studied kinanthropology analysing movement with respect to the nervous system, has created ten pieces as a choreographer, including Le Corpuscule MÈcanicien. Choreographic language evokes the metamorphosis and configuration of the human body in its beauty and distortion.

Martin Kusch: artistic director/media environment
German artist from Berlin, studied art history, philosophy and painting; has worked as a media artist in Vienna since 1988, specializing in installations and video works. Kusch teaches at the University of Applied Arts in Vienna, and is an expert on architecture and site specificity.
