Resizing the Digital Gesture

The project presented here aims to explore the artistic possibilities offered by digital performances in real time, in the form of dance, which is regarded as a privileged form of body language in the interaction between the performer and a digital artifact, interaction that establishes itself as the driving element of the whole scenic narrative. To research the aforementioned possibilities, a digital artifact, named NUVE, was conceptualized, developed, and implemented for the purpose of creating a dance performance where a performer will interact with the system, resulting in a fluid digital performance, based on the theme of the analog body versus the digital/virtual body, that will be exhibited in public.
