Christine Bonansea & Chris Ziegler are MODINA residency artists at tanzhaus nrw. Under the title YUGEN (Japanese = secret and depth), they both explore the friction of digital technologies and intense physicalness on stage. As part of TEMPS’DIMAGES, they provide a glimpse into this exciting work process. Bonansea & Ziegler experiment with a motion capture suit and develop a pas de deux between a human dancer and a VR avatar within a feedback loop. This looping transmission process becomes interrupted and altered to find, again or a new, the physical and individual quality of human expression in the mirror of its artificiality.

The three-year project Movement, Digital Intelligence and Interactive Audience (MODINA) unites three academic institutions and five dance houses in six European countries. It aims to expand the creative possibilities for contemporary dance performances and to improve the audience experience through the use of digital technology – with a focus on artificial intelligence (AI) research and the interaction with the audience, both on-site as well as online.
