Danceroom Response

I find the work of this company to be intellectually stimulating and inspiring. In this developing technological world, a common goal is to combine the arts and sciences together in an efficient/useful way and this piece is a perfect example. The video I enjoyed the most was the “Science Foundation Research” video - I have always been most fascinated with controlling what appear to be on screen “bodies” in real time.

In another piece, Hidden Fields, the programmer of the show does something very interesting - he projects others “energy” onto a screen. These projections are in sync with sound and the overall product is stunning. This piece definitely gave me some ideas as to what I want to do with my project.


This program seems to be a prime example of where digital design is shifting - they are a very recognized company and have won many awards. I am very impressed and look forward to seeing what they do next.
