Erre que erre / Mariangeles G. Angulo & Román Torre - Avatar
Avatar* is the research and interaction of a moving body on and with an
interactive virtual space. Throughout the performance, the dancer’s body
faces unknown situations and areas with which it interacts in its
decision-making process.
It is an interpretative and conceptual premise, the fact represented on
stage, and the play our own avatar, which is the virtual representation
of ourselves.
Avatar* is a solo dance in which the player is in constant dialogue with
the software responsible for the different pre-programmed event
narratives that reacts based on movements, gestures and attitudes
detected through the screen by cameras that send position signals to the
computer in charge of processing the data which then forwards them to
the stage area in real time.
