SLOW DANCE RECYTTAL is live music/animation/performance by Carnegie
Mellon grads Christopher Doulgeris, Cassandra C. Jones and Peter Burr.
Using a combination of flash, motion graphics, and found photo
animation, Slow Dance Recyttal follows the perspective of a shape
shifting character on a quest to uncover the melodic structures within
his multiplistic universe. The projected animations are set to an
all-original soundtrack of electronic melodies and are accompanied by
live clarinet and bass guitar. The full performance takes place in a
stage set of giant glowing inflatable jems.
|
HOOLIGANSHIP is a grunge rock inspired dance-off duo that combines
electronic melodies with freak-out animations for a sensory-overload
multimedia party. Christopher Doulgeris and Peter Burr use
instructional videos, pamphlets, and a bass guitar and keyboard combo
to teach audiences how to revel in a heap of sights and sounds with
specially choreographed dance moves.
|
DITES DONC (pronounced "Deet Dahnk" French slang for "Look here!" or "Hey!")
is a sexy, fun, and dancey feminist art performance band from Milwaukee WI.
