UCLA REMAP and the Buenos Aires-based company Cuerda Productions collaboratively experimented with the use of media in aerial performance at cheLA in March & April 2013. The intensive, exploratory workshop used Einstein’s Dreams by Alan Lightman as source material, and researched possibilities for new software, composition, sound & lighting design, projection of images, video & text, and Cuerda’s water wall & “flying” actors.
The REMAP team consisted of Jeff Burke (REMAP Director), developer Alexander Horn, theatre-makers Cristina Bercovitz & Jared J. Stein, lighting & projections designer Matthew Johns, composer & sound designer Jonathan Snipes, and programmer Wentao Shang.
Videos of the experiments are available here.
