Pixels in the Closet
In a unique collaboration between Hong Kong dancer Abby Chan and Denver digital artist Bryan Leister, dance, digital images and sound tell a dark tale from childhood memories. Motion capture technology using infrared cameras, inverse kinematics recognition and Kinect software will allow Chan to control and create music in real-time through her dance movements. The combination of Chinese dance and cultural icons melded with the latest in digital game/controller technology and graphics promises to deliver a powerful theater experience.

Performers: Abby Chan, CAI Ying.
Multimedia artist, video: Bryan Leister

When: Friday October 26th, and Saturday October 27 at 7:30pm
Where: Atlas Institute, Black Box Theater, downstairs, level B2, University of Colorado Boulder

Hero@Expired August – October 2011

《 英雄@過期》2011年社區文化大使
《 Hero @ Expired 》Culture Ambassador Program

24/9/2011 – 16/10/2011
英雄入無用武之地,瞬間就「過期」……活像一堆堆過期罐頭;內裡有毒、正在發霉。

英雄最大的敵人:過度懷緬昔日風光。在苦中無人青睞的日子,特別寂寞,終忍不住要相濡以沫,輪流表演自娛也娛人。廣場上,每日陽光在當頭最毒方位,正是獻醜之時ー落得身無絕技的英雄們,滑稽笨拙地在台上亂跳舞、勁謾罵、假煽情、扮小丑……過期英雄,活在失真的年代,也等著英雄來拯救。
