(The Moment) Everything Changed
We are told repeatedly by LECs, audience members and participants that dance can say the things that words fail to capture, and we’ve found that creative technologies can extend the vocabulary and impact of the dance, and amplify those messages even further.
The interactions allow people without direct experience of neurological conditions get the opportunity to physically and emotionally get just a glimpse into what it’s like to live with some of those symptoms on a daily basis. Our LECs say that they want people to leave the experience, having a bit more empathy and understanding and maybe have shifted their perspectives on disability and difference. Effects, glitches and delays built into the interaction are designed to illuminate how neuro-disabled people can experience movement.
