MORTAL ENGINE

[Dream Worlds 30 second preview]

MORTAL ENGINE, 2008

Mortal Engine is a dance-video-music-laser performance using movement and sound responsive projections to portray an ever-shifting, shimmering world in which the limits of the human body are an illusion. Crackling light and staining shadows represent the most perfect or sinister of souls. Kinetic energy fluidly metamorphoses from the human figure into light image, into sound and back again. Choreography is focused on movement of unformed beings in an unfamiliar landscape searching to connect and evolve in a constant state of becoming. Veering between moments of exquisite cosmological perfection and grotesque evolutionary accidents of existence, we are driven forward by the reality of permanent change.

作品名:

MORTAL ENGINE, 2008

致命引擎是一种结合舞蹈、录影、音乐和激光多重表现形式的表演。它运用动作和声音投影去展现一个变更、闪烁的世界,在这个世界里,人的身体的界限是一种幻想。忽闪的灯光和暗影体现着人类灵魂的邪恶的一面。人的影像和声音在灯光中摇摆暗示着能量的流动。舞蹈的编排强调不成形的影像在不熟悉的环境中移动,试图寻找永恒的存在。在精妙的宇宙和怪诞的进化中来回,我们正在被逐渐引至永恒变化的真实中
