Having just recovered from the IN-SITE excitement, this weekend we kick off our next commission in the city of Cambridge.

Myself and DFDcollective have been commissioned by Michael Pinsky, a visual artist, to create a piece of work to be performed at the launch of his latest installation ‘I’m Laughing At Clouds’.

Michael Pinsky is an internationally renowned artist who has created many large scale works for both gallery spaces and the public realm. You can see examples of Michael’s previous work HERE. ‘I’m Laughing At Clouds’ consists of 9 light columns which sense the participants heart rate. Once the heat rate has been detected, the columns emit light and sound at the same rate. The choreography will explore a dynamic range of movement, producing varying heart rates from the dancers. This will be the first time I have incorporated technology into choreography, and I am really excited to begin working with the dancers on this new challenge.

Working with us will be two dancers from local company Cambridge Contemporary Dance. Hannah Spencer and Camila Maria will be joining us as guest dancers for this work. We are excited to welcome these new faces into our team.
