TechDance Interview and TeDaChat

2022-2024

An interview article with Gilles Jobin, published at ARTISM, The International Association of Theatre Critics (HK). Article title: We are on the eve of a digital revolution in the history of dance. The article was translated into Chinese, and talked about AI, technology, and dance.

He said: ”The digital three-dimensional space is accessible to dance artists. You can learn complex techniques on your own or ask for help. This is a new dance space, like dancing in the park, or shooting a dance video in the desert. This is already possible. We have different tools, we have portals into the digital world. AI is part of it.“

4 Questions on Future Dance

2022 December

Many pictures were taken in my recent work, Accelerating Dimension.

 

“ The future of dance is open and fluid. In the past, mainstream dance was started from the organic body and movement of human beings, while technology or machines preset the direction of iterative upgrading. The deep interaction between Dance and Technology will produce many possibilities. To explore the future of dance, we need to ask questions, experiment, and select and refine works from diverse possibilities. In the process, traditional ideas and methods will be challenged and even subverted. “

I gradually found those specific questions in doubt, my problem is large and empty If I do not know the purpose of problems.

《Echoing Woods》作品欣赏

May 26, 2015

欣赏《Echoing Woods》这个作品,并深深地投入其中探寻着事物的发展,或许不论是舞者还是观众都会情不自禁地将自己融入某一角色,同时,编舞想要表达的微妙细节也将在舞者身上不断变化,所以我认为一个作品的轨迹与它本身的创作精神,往往源于编舞的经历。而舞者如何用身体表达“情绪”?就产生了一个问题:在舞台上,你到底是演员,舞者,还是普通人?无关于应该是怎样,而在乎你是否清晰?那些像寄生兽般的影子,是否也带着黑暗的愤怒呢?
