Pholo: Jeff Busby CRUMPLED Much of the choreography in Crumpled entertains an exaggerated sense of reality of what the body can withstand at the point of impact. Rigorous in intent and reckless in manifestation, this work of considered and calculated collisions continues on relentlessly, like an extended action sequence. The body's counterfeit resilience is only betrayed when performers of the work are selectively shut out from the piece together with the audience. CORRUPTED 2 Rather than a moral or ethical corruption, the digital meaning of 'corruption' refers to defect or damage to data. Corrupted 2 uses this digital premise as a point of departure, to explore a poetic of malfunction. By imposing various limitations and unusual movement tasks, the dancers are made to move in awkward and unnatural ways. The resulting work is both a physical and psychological manifestation of corruption. -Gideon Obarzanek 27 \Alho'c \ALb......-...-o _ Gideon Obarzanek (artistic director and chore­ critic on ABC radio and has served on the ographer) studied at the Australian Ballet Boards of the NSW Community Arts School and, after grad uati ng in 1987, da nced Association, Arena Theatre Company, and with the Queensland Ballet and the Sydney Melbourne Workers Theatre.

  • Choreographic Performance Systems
    Choreographic Performance Systems Johannes Birringer Digital Performance Around the turn of the millennium reviewers noted that the marriage of dance and technology had produced a few significant works which startled audiences and shifted attention to what we now call digital performance. While the growth of computer-based art is an accepted phenomenon in globalized technological cultures, the genre of digital performance is still adolescent and thus in need of historical and conceptual underpinnings.1 The more sustained lineage of dance on screen and multimedia performances which incorporate projections of screen images offers a background for understanding the compatibility between live dance and the moving image, yet the incursion of software into choreographic working process is a different matter. Digital performance, to begin, is not a screen-based medium. Rather, it is characterized by an interface structure and computational processes that are integral for composition, evolving content, aesthetic techniques, interactive configurations and delivery forms. In many instances, the integration of human-machine interfaces implies the design of interactive systems, with 3D motion sensing set ups (for example Kinect) or wearable instruments that control real-time synthesis of digital outputs. Installation architectures compete with the stage – contextual design of programmable systems becomes a new form of architecture, protocol, and bio-informatic space. In the following, I review the historical development of video-dance, motion capture,
