Collective Body is a collective movement experience in virtual reality that aims to question our rapidly evolving relationship to the increasingly present virtual technology. By inviting participants into expressive movement by using visual and vocal improvisation prompts, participants are eventually brought back to a deeper, more embodied state that encourages them to discover their own movement identities.
This MeMoSa event will explore the analog research that director and Artist-in-Residence Sarah Silverblatt-Buser has undertaken through physical movement games that inspire strong sensations of presence. This movement research will later be translated into virtual movement tasks in collaboration with Parisian new media production company Atlas V. Creative producer and art director, Pierre Zandrowicz, will also be present to discuss this collaborative creative process.
Collective Body has been commissioned by Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts and is currently in its second development phase.
