Our role Real-time software, sound, light and LEDs.
A flamenco show where light becomes a stage object. Rhythm is watched and form is heard: the light answers the singing and the dancer’s feet, and extends flamenco in time and space.
We built the real-time sound analysis and the stage system that make the light respond to dance and song: onset and compás detection, light sources driven to the millisecond, rehearsal tools so the artist and the choreographer could compose together, on stage.
“I want to use light as an object, not to show the performer.” Pablo Valbuena
Co-produced by CENTQUATRE-PARIS. The first 2020 dates were cancelled by health restrictions; premiered in 2021.
