BOXED

A living sculpture in urban space.

 

A sculpture that is created by you, the participating audience: through instructions given through headphones, you will be a part of a larger choreographic system, moving objects, creating formations, and shaping the space between you.

The choreographic system in BOXED is inspired by programming language and the choreographic organization of software systems.

BOXED reflects upon what kind of systems we take part in in society – practically, socially, politically, and personally – and what kind of rules and dynamics that requires.

As a member of the audience, you will be physically active in the creation of this performance.

The concept for BOXED is developed through the exhibition DataKoreografi arranged and initiated by PhD.- Fellow and Curator Anne Julie Arnfred in collaboration with CATCH (Center of Art and Technology). Further development of BOXED has been supported through a residency at Holstebro Dansekompagni and by The Danish Art Foundation.
