Here are some potential topics/mechanisms I’ve been considering for the final performance:
- Human & creature story following the narrative of the Little Prince and the Fox (meeting, gradual domestication, goodbye)
A performer interacts with a creature that appears projection mapped between different surfaces along the screen.
2. Performance based on interactions with piles of gravel/pebbles on the ground
Performer moves/dances and interacts with the piles of pebbles around them. These pebbles are projection mapped, and their color/look changes according to how they are grouped. Possibility: perhaps lurking eyes on the background, progressively building tension.
3. Performance revolving around a spherical light object hung on the ceiling
A dancer performs and moves while interacting with a light sphere hung on the ceiling from a flexible fabric/thread. The movement and swaying of the sphere causes changes on the visualizations on stage (on the wall, floor, or on both). Possible technical implementations include creating an interactive flowfield, using attractors, or creating different brushes.
4. Performance based on interaction with cubes of variable sizes scattered throughout the stage
As can be seen on the photo, this performance would entail a dancer or performer interacting and moving different cubes, triggering different reactions on the wall and on the projected cubes themselves.
