REPERTORY/ how long does the subject linger on the edge of the volume...
… the deep connections between movement, sound, and terrain create the image of a united world- unimaginably gorgeous.
– Deborah Jowitt, The Village Voice
This work employs motion capture to inextricably weave the movement, music, and visual elements into one beautifully integrated design. Brown’s multi-media collaboration with visual artists Paul Kaiser, Shelley Eshkar, and Marc Downie and composer Curtis Bahn, through its exhilarating amalgamation of dance, music, and set, challenges the future of dance presentation.
