Chasing the Pools

This is a single-channel video based on an immersive performance/installation exploring live cameras on dancers seamlessly integrated into the landscape of live-mix video projection. Their lit bodies became one moving image, dematerializing or re-materializing the body, while the background remained another. These channels were projected onto numerous scrims in a large tree grove. The video combines the composite live-feed image with the original source material.

The sound design utilized a 10-channel diffusion system, with a real-time sampling shaping and processing the live audio and sending it across the public space of the performance.
