Artism Act II

Artism Act II is a study on movement. A live performance combining dance and technology.

The director Eric Nyira wanted to present a new perspective to the audience. To take the focus away from the dancer and highlight the different aspects of movement.

The spectacle was small, but ambitious. We mounted five projectors around the stage and also two Kinects on the ceiling looking down.

Our custom software was responsible to merge the data coming from both Kinects and to find the blobs corresponding to each dancer. These blobs were then used create real time visuals, which were drawn onto a flattened cube and later stretched and mapped to the stage.
