Join Emily, 1iing and their colloborators for a work in progress sharing of 'Turrus'.

Previously unseen, private, uncanny, lurid and strange internal landscapes and dances of dissolution are revealed through an experimental multimedia exploration of the usurpation of the real by the virtual: the body without context. Motion, spatial data-capture technologies and immersive theatre principles are explored using aerial dance, digital art, design and illustration. A complex web of multiple stories,this piece draws on the music of Maurice Ravel, Gaspard de la nuit, a suite of piano pieces inspired by the poetry of Aloysius Bertrand, including Ondine, a tale of impossible desire and necessary death in the meeting of material and immaterial worlds.
