On stage, we will see twelve dancers and their avatars in a performance created by choreographer Cheng Tsung-lung and digital artist Daito Manabe for the 50th anniversary of Cloud Gate, a Taiwanese ‘fusion company’ renowned for combining Eastern practices and Western dance. The fusion in Cheng’s new show, who is also Cloud Gate’s artistic director, also involves dance and technology.
In WAVES, the movements of the bodies interfere with the waves generated by Manabe’s sounds, while the dancers’ muscular and respiratory activity is transformed into data processed by AI.
