Terrain of Spills - The Dance of Corporality and Technology
Electronic rhizomes, living masses and machine bodies inhabit an ever-changing condition; form different shades in the organic-mechanical terrain. The piece is built on scores, which can be seen as a kind of technology.
During the process the working group studied the juxtaposition of organic and mechanical, gravity through classical mechanics, different kinds of agencies, self-generating systems, control and surrendering, various sensors, the concept of a prosthesis.
