We are now mid-way through the Research and Development for our latest project, ‘I’m Laughing At Clouds’, in Cambridge. Holly, Sarah and Glynn are dancing in the project and we are delighted to be joined on this project by Hannah and Camila from Cambridge Contemporary Contemporary Dance. It has been wonderful to have new dancers on the team to share ideas with.
The sculpture on site is a series of columns which detect the participants heart rate and emit light and sound at the same rate. Unfortunately, so far we have been unable to use this interactive element, so we are excited to begin working with the sound in the last three days of R&D. Despite a lack of sound, we have still been working on-site and have spent the last 4 days generating lots of movement. We have been working with incorporating spoken text into the choreography which is a new and exciting challenge for me! It has also helped us to learn all about different cloud formations!!
Look out for photos and videos coming soon!!
